Hi Friend! This is an Experiment that is friendly for use in the Experiment Factory. You can run it locally by putting these files in a web server, or use the Experiment Factory to generate a reproducible container. Check out the documentation above for more information, or post an issue if you have any questions.
- Download Mongoose - its a web server that runs anything in the same folder. Look at "Free edition". NB: If you already have something on your computer running on port 8080 you may need to change it. Create a shortcut to mongoose and change the parameters when it runs to
-listening_port 8181
for example - Download this project - and save the folder in the same folder as Mongoose
- Open your web browser and go to http://localhost:8080 (or http://localhost:8181 if you have changed it) and navigate to the flanker folder in the web browser.
