You have 3 ways to install the MBP on your Windows PC 😎:

  1. Install the MBP using an installer
  1. Install the MBP using a silent installer
  1. Install the MBP manually 🤘

Java 8 is required to be already installed before starting the MBP installation. If you do not have Java 8 installed, its installer can be found here.

In all of the 3 ways, the following software components will be installed, in order to set up the MBP: Mosquitto MQTT Broker, mongoDB server, and Tomcat8.

Once the installation is completed, the MBP will be available on the URL http://[MBP-Host]:8080/MBP. To start using the MBP, please click here to see our Quick start.
