Quick Start

1. Install dependencies:

   npm install

1. Start the UI (choose one method):

   # Standard Next.js development server
   npm run ui
   
   # Clean start with port cleanup
   npm run ui:clean
   
   # Alternative Express server (if Next.js has issues)
   npm run ui:express
   
   # Desktop app (no web server required)
   npm run ui:electron

1. Access the web interface at:

   http://localhost:3001

(Not required for the desktop app option)

UI Options

The project includes multiple ways to access the UI:

1. Next.js Development Server

# Standard Next.js dev server
npm run ui

# Clean start (kills any existing processes using the ports)
npm run ui:clean

# Start with administrator privileges (for stubborn processes)
npm run ui:admin

2. Alternative Server Options

# Simple Express server (more stable alternative)
npm run ui:express

# Basic HTML test page server
npm run ui:test

3. Desktop Application

For environments where web servers have connectivity issues:

# Electron desktop application (no web server required)
npm run ui:electron

Troubleshooting UI Server

If you experience connection issues with the UI server:

1. Check your firewall settings
2. Run the firewall exception script: npm run firewall:allow
3. See the scripts/docs/ui-connect-guide.md for detailed connection troubleshooting
4. Try the desktop app option: npm run ui:electron

Utility Scripts

The repository includes several utility scripts to help with development and troubleshooting:

Essential Server Scripts (in scripts/server/)

• run-ui-clean.bat - Main script to start the UI server (cleans up existing processes)
• run-ui-admin.bat - Starts the UI server with administrator privileges
• serve-test-page.bat - Serves a simple HTML test page on port 8000 to test connectivity
• run-express-server.bat - Starts an Express server as an alternative to Next.js
• run-electron-app.bat - Starts the Electron desktop application (no web server required)

Network Troubleshooting (in scripts/network/)

• check-connectivity.bat - Comprehensive network connectivity diagnostics
• check-windows-firewall.bat - Check firewall status and rules
• allow-node-firewall.bat - Add Node.js to Windows Firewall exceptions
• test-network-connection.bat - Test specific network connections
• test-port-3000.bat - Test if port 3000 is available
• kill-port-3000.bat - Kill any process using port 3000
