After hyperglass is [installed](getting-started.mdx), you can run the `hyperglass --help` command to see the available options:
```shell-session
$ hyperglass --help
Usage: hyperglass [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...
hyperglass Command Line Interface
Options:
-v, --version 🔢 hyperglass version

Commands:
build-ui 🦋 Create a new UI build
clear-cache 🧼 Clear the Redis cache
secret 🔒 Generate agent secret
setup 🧰 Run the setup wizard
start 🚀 Start web server
```
## Setup Wizard
To start the setup wizard, run `hyperglass setup`.
You'll receive the following prompts:
### Installation Directory
```shell-session
[?] Choose a directory for hyperglass: /Users/ml/hyperglass
> /home/user/hyperglass
/etc/hyperglass
```
hyperglass requires a directory on your system to store configuration files, the web UI, logos, etc. You may choose between the current user's home directory or `/etc` (use the up/down arrow keys).
## UI Build
After running the setup, the `build-ui` command needs to be run for the first time. This command creates the required file structure for the UI, initializes frontend dependencies, and generates favicons.
:::caution
If your system's compute resources are too low, the `build-ui` step will likely fail. You can use the `--timeout` flag to increase the default timeout of 180 seconds. You can also set the environment variable `HYPERGLASS_UI_BUILD_TIMEOUT` for the same result. See the [system requirements](production.mdx) section for more information about system resources.
:::
```shell-session
$ hyperglass build-ui
✅ Completed UI build in production mode
```
## Startup
To start hyperglass from the console run `hyperglass start`.
:::important
hyperglass won't start without a `devices.yaml` file. See the [Adding Devices](adding-devices.mdx) section for instructions on how add devices.
:::
```shell-session
$ hyperglass start
```
:::tip Production
Remember to check the [Production](production.mdx) section for instructions on how to run hyperglass in production. It includes instructions and examples for setting up a Reverse Proxy (such as NGINX or Caddy), and running hyperglass as a system service with systemd.
