You may use the pre-built app (see release tab) or build this repository using the guide below (see section: Running & Building).

2.0. How to use

  1. Launch app.
  2. Click the Start Debugging button. This would open a socket that listens at port 3000.
  3. Launch you multi-agent system that has been configured to make log states as JSON as defined here.
  4. If your MAS consists of multiple agents, use the selector to choose between agents. While no agent has been chosen, the app chooses the first agent that logs its state.
