Recommended

Docker

Runs on Linux, macOS, Windows, servers, and Raspberry Pi. The dashboard is available at http://<host>:8110.

Save that one file into a new folder, open a terminal in that folder, and run:

docker compose up -d

That is the whole install. Docker downloads MeshWX Pro App for you and starts it, picking the right build for your machine automatically. Then open http://<host>:8110.

There is nothing else to download. If you have used an older release that needed a .tar.gz image file, you do not need one any more.

Windows

Windows installer

Download and run the MeshWX Pro App installer. It installs the application on your PC and creates a desktop icon you can use to launch MeshWX Pro App.

Upgrading

Moving to a newer release.

Open a terminal in the same folder as your docker-compose.yml and run these two commands:

docker compose pull
docker compose up -d

Your settings, history and transmit log are kept. They live in the data folder next to the compose file and are never touched by an upgrade.

To confirm it worked, open the dashboard and check the version shown at the bottom of the left sidebar.

Do not replace your docker-compose.yml when you upgrade, and do not download it again. It contains no version number, so the same file keeps working for every future release.

Raspberry Pi

Headless Raspberry Pi

Everything here runs over SSH, so there is nothing to download in a browser. If the Pi does not have Docker yet, install it first:

curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com | sh
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
newgrp docker

Then make a folder, pull the compose file straight onto the Pi, and start it:

mkdir meshwx && cd meshwx
curl -O https://meshwxpro.com/docker/docker-compose.yml
docker compose up -d

Open http://<pi-ip>:8110 from another device on your network. The compose file uses restart: unless-stopped, so MeshWX Pro App comes back on its own after a reboot or a crash.

To upgrade later, run docker compose pull then docker compose up -d in that same meshwx folder.

Use a 64-bit Raspberry Pi OS. A 32-bit OS cannot run the image.
