Mist Browser
Mist. Browse and use Ðapps on the Ethereum network.
The Mist browser is the tool of choice to browse and use Ðapps. If you want to install the app from a pre-built version on the release page, you can simply run the executable after download. For updating, simply download the new version and copy it over the old one (keep a backup of the old one if you want to be sure). In order to install from .zip files, please install libgconf2-4 first. Once a Mist version is released the Meteor frontend part is bundled using the meteor-build-client npm package to create pure static files. For development we start the interface with a Meteor server for auto-reload etc. Client binaries (e.g. geth) specified in clientBinaries.json will be checked during every startup and downloaded if out-of-date, binaries are stored in the config folder. You can pass command-line options directly to Geth by prefixing them with --node- in the command-line invocation.
