Prerequisites

Before proceeding with this tutorial, make sure you have the following installed:

Step 1: Install Klaus

To start, open the terminal on your Ubuntu Server Latest and run the following command to clone the Klaus Git repository:

Step 3: Start Klaus

To start Klaus, run the following command in the "klaus" directory:

python klaus.py /path/to/repo.git

This will start Klaus and show the Git repository at the given path. To access Klaus from a web browser, open the IP address of your Ubuntu Server Latest and use the port number you have set in the klaus.cfg file.
