Launching a Bubble from a Local Launcher
These instructions assume you have already set up a Local Launcher or are running the Bubble Docker Launcher.
Login
Login to your Local Launcher using the root admin account that was created during activation.
Because the login field must be an email address, use the special email address root@local.local to login
with the admin account.
Launch Bubble
You should see a “Launch Bubble” screen.
In the “Bubble Type” drop-down, choose “Fork Bubble”
Choose your configuration options, then click the “Launch Your Bubble!” button kick things off.
The screen will refresh and show a progress meter. A typical launch will take about 10 minutes.
Your Very First Bubble
The very first Bubble you launch will use a packer image that was created during activation.
If the image is still being built or needs to be built, that will add some time to the launch process.
The Bubble packer documentation has more details on this process.
Install Bubble Apps
While your Bubble is launching, take a moment to install the Bubble Native app on each device you plan on connecting to your Bubble.
When your Bubble finishes launching, it will show a “Connect to Bubble” button. Click this and you’ll be connected to your Bubble Node.
