Let’s take it one step at a time.

​
Prerequisites

Before installing Midaz Console, make sure a few things are ready:
ImportantYou mustset up the Midaz Ledger and make sure it is running before you beging instaling Midaz Console.
You’ll need two tools installed on your computer:
  • Node.js (version 18.x or higher)
  • NPM (it comes with Node.js)
First time using Node.js or npm?No problem, we’ve got you covered. If you’re new to these tools or not sure how to install them, check out our Beginner-Friendly Guide to Node.js and npm. It walks you through everything step by step.
Once those are installed, you’re ready to go.

​
Setting up Midaz Console

AttentionCheck Docker Desktop to make sure the Midaz Ledger is running. The Console won’t work without it.

​
Step 1 - Download the Console code

First, you’ll download a copy of Midaz Console to your computer.
1

Open your terminal or command prompt.
2

Navigate to the folder where you want to keep the project. For example, if you want to save it to your Desktop, you can run:
  1. On Windows, it might look like cd %USERPROFILE%\Desktop.
cd ~/Desktop
3

Download the repository by running the following command:
  1. This will create a folder called midaz-console and place all the Console files inside it.
git clone https://github.com/LerianStudio/midaz-console.git
4

Navigate to the midaz-console folder to continue the setup from there. To do so, run the following command:
cd midaz-console

​
Step 2 - Set up and run Midaz Console locally

Now that you’ve downloaded the Console code to your computer, let’s set it up.
1

Install all required dependencies by running this command:
npm install
2

Configure your local environment by running this next command:
npm run set-local-env
3

Start the Console by running this command:
  1. This may take a few minutes the first time. That’s expected.
npm run dev

​
Step 3 - Open Midaz Console in your browser

Once the setup is complete, open your browser and go to: http://localhost:8081.
AttentionIf you are running Midaz Console for the first time, it might take a little longer to load while it compiles and displays the data.

​
Step 4 - Optional: run with Docker

If you prefer to run everything in containers (a good way to keep your system clean and isolated), you can use Docker. Just run: 
npm run docker-up
