GUI

Tracer also offers a GUI in form of a webapp. You can run the webapp by executing the following command:

python tracer --web tracer

This will run the webapp on port 12345. Tracer should automatically open your browser and connect to the webapp. If not, open your browser manually and type http://127.0.0.1:12345 into the search bar and hit enter.
