        1. Install the latest Raspbian WITH desktop environment (but without recommended software) on your SD card from here
        2. Fire up your RasPi 3B+, set up wifi or lan, SSH, and everything you would set up for a running Raspbian system (if you donÄt know why, you will first have to make yourself acquainted with Raspbian itself.
        3. Open the console (directly on the RasPi or via ssh) and follow installation procedure given on github
        1. Enjoy!

                  Hey together :)
                  I’m new and could install the software, but i can’t connect to the mirror per localhost for the admin tool.
                  Should i install apache2 and put the software to /var/www/html? Or can i run it without @ http://magicmirror?

                  Greets :)

                    @Dodo88 No, you usually don’t need to do those things, the mirror should run by itself, but you need to use port 8080.

                    Take care of the following:

                    • Go into your config.js and look for the “address” parameter. It needs to be
                      address: "0.0.0.0",
                    • visit your mirror from your browser via: http://localhost:8080
                      If it doesn’t work, try visiting your mirror from another computer using: http://magicmirror:8080
                      -Report if it works :-)

                      Hey :)

                      No it doesn’t work :(

                      I get this error by trying “http://192.168.178.33:8080”

                      "Die Website ist nicht erreichbar192.168.178.33 hat die Verbindung abgelehnt.
                      Versuchen Sie Folgendes:

                      Verbindung prüfen
                      ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED"

                      Should i post my config.js?

                        @Dodo88 said in How to start:

                        I’m new and could install the software, but i can’t connect to the mirror per localhost for the admin tool.

                        there is no ‘admin’ tool on MagicMirror

                        also, localhost mean the machine I’m on. so if you are using a windows machine to connect to the mirror, and use localhost, that mean on the windows machine…

                        in addition to what @lavolp3 said, you also need to clear out the ipWhitelist to look like this

                        ipWhitelist: []
                        

                        which means ‘allow anyone to connect’
