Installation

Galago consists of two main components that work together:

  • Tools Manager: A Python-based interface that manages the tool servers.
  • Web App: A web interface that encapsulates the database, scheduler, and tool command execution.

For a complete Galago installation, you’ll need to set up both components as described below.
