mxPIC EDA Intranet Deployment

Start on the office LAN

1. On the host computer, open PowerShell in this repository.
2. Set a persistent secret key:

$env:MXPIC_SECRET_KEY = "replace-with-a-long-random-secret"

3. Start the server:

.\run_intranet_server.ps1

The app listens on 0.0.0.0:3000, so other users can open:

http://<host-computer-ip>:3000

Find the host IP with:

ipconfig

Use the IPv4 address on the company LAN adapter.

Windows firewall

If coworkers cannot connect, allow inbound TCP port 3000 on the host computer.
