You can either self-host your own client to be served from your own server, or better yet, just run an instance locally. -First make sure you have `yarn` install. +You can get the latest version of the web client from https://client.etesync.com/etesync-web.tgz. This +file is automatically generated on each deploy and is exactly the same as the delpoyed version. +After fetching thise file you need to extract it by e.g. running `tar -xzf etesync-web.tgz`, and then +you can serve the files using your favourite web server.

Then clone this repository `yarn`, run `yarn` and wait until all of the deps are installed. Then it's recommended you run `yarn build` to build a production ready client you should serve (even if run locally!) and then just serve the `build` directory from a web server. -You could, for example, use the python built-in web server by running `python3 -m http.server` from -the build directory. - -Alternatively, you can run the debug server just to verify everything works, -though be aware that the app will probably be quite slow. To do that, run `yarn start`. ### Serving from a subdirectory
