     git clone https://github.com/solidsuccs/simba.git

     pip3 install -e /path/to/simba

Running SimBA Web on a remote server via SSH port forwarding

1. ssh into the remote server using the port forwarding option:

     ssh -L 1234:localhost:5678 [email protected]
   

   The numbers 1234 and 5678 are arbitrary, and a value of 5000 is recommended for both. username is your username and server.name.edu is the name of the server you are connecting to. Note: localhost is NOT arbitrary.

2. On the server, navigate to the correct directory and type

     simba web --ip 5678
   

   The port 5678 must match the number used in the previous step. If you used 5000 you do not need to specify the port as that is the default option for simba web.

3. On your local computer, in a browser, navigate to

     localhost:1234
   

   You should see the SimBA interface.
