Quick Start Guide

Get FabConnect up and running in just 5 minutes.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

  • Docker installed on your system
  • Access to your semiconductor equipment network
  • Equipment IP addresses and port numbers
  • Step 1: Pull the Docker Image

    docker pull fabconnect/gateway:latest

    Step 2: Start the Gateway

    docker run -d \
      --name fabconnect-gateway \
      -p 8080:8080 \
      -p 5000:5000 \
      fabconnect/gateway:latest

    Step 3: Access the Dashboard

    Open your browser and navigate to `http://localhost:8080`

    Log in with the admin account you created at first startup (set the

    `FABCONNECT_ADMIN_PASSWORD` environment variable before launching the

    gateway — there are no default credentials).

    Step 4: Add Your First Equipment

    2. Click "Add Equipment"

    3. Enter your equipment details:

    - Name: Your equipment identifier
