Project setup

There are two supported ways to run a Demos node. Both produce a working node — they differ only in where the binary and its dependencies live. If you don’t have a strong reason to pick Track 2, use Track 1. The docker compose up workflow boots the full stack — node, Postgres, optional TLSNotary sidecar, and the Prometheus + Grafana monitoring stack — in a single command.

​
Quickstart (Docker Compose)

On any platform with Docker and the v2 compose plugin:
When healthy:
  • Node RPC: http://localhost:53550 (try curl http://localhost:53550/info)
  • Grafana: http://localhost:3000 (default admin / demos)
  • Prometheus: http://localhost:9091

​
Platform guides

Pick the guide that matches your machine. Each one walks Track 1 first and links to the canonical INSTALL.md for the full Track 2 walkthrough.

Source of truth

The platform guides are kept short on purpose. For the full reference — every env var, every profile, all bare-metal options — see INSTALL.md in the node repository and the canonical .env.example.
