## Installation

Currently, we recommend users to install Dashboard using the **[Deploy repo](https://github.com/hummingbot/deploy)** instead as this will automatically launch Dashboard along with the needed components in their own Docker containers. 

If you are a developer, and want to make changes to the code then we recommend using the Source installation below - please note that you will also need to launch the Backend API and Broker separately (either through source install or through Docker).   

1. **Install Dependencies**:
   - Docker Engine
   - Miniconda or Anaconda

2. **Clone Repository and Navigate to Directory**:
    ```bash
    git clone https://github.com/hummingbot/dashboard.git
    cd dashboard
    ```

3. **Create Conda Environment and Install Dependencies**:
    ```bash
    make install
    ```

4. **Activate the Isolated 'conda' Environment**:
    ```bash
    conda activate dashboard
    ```

5. **Start the Dashboard**:
    ```bash
    make run
    ```
