Datab
Walkthroughs for first-time operators + partners

Tutorials

preview

Tutorial content for RC1 is intentionally minimal — the platform is moving too fast for screenshot-heavy walkthroughs to stay accurate. Operators and partners should rely on the canonical docs (which live in version control next to the code).

First-run operator path

  1. Flash the Datab Node image — see Install Guides.
  2. Boot the node, wait for snapd to enable all services.
  3. Run sudo /snap/datab-app/current/scripts/doctor.sh — expect exit 0.
  4. Set the institution-internal API key — see Step 10 of the operator boot guide.
  5. Open https://<node-ip>:8080 in a LAN browser, complete first-time admin onboarding.
  6. Install datab-os-mobile on an operator phone, point it at the node URL.

First-run partner path

  1. Read Partner Apps for packaging options (container / snap part / static bundle).
  2. Develop against a development Datab Node — partner builds require a real node, not a mock.
  3. Hit the LAN-only backend at http://datab-node.local:8080; never assume internet routing.
  4. Sign your artifact + publish via DatabHome partner onboarding.
