💽The nodectl utility

This section explains how to use the Constellation Network Command Line Interface (CLI) utility, which provides a simplified way to run a node without requiring technical expertise or in-depth knowledge of the Tessellation Protocol’s architecture and operation.

What is nodectl?

Pronounced node control, node-c-t-l, or node-cuttle.

nodectl is a command-line utility designed to simplify the deployment and management of Constellation Network Validator nodes.

It eliminates the need for deep technical knowledge of the Tessellation Protocol, allowing both technical and non-technical users to run and maintain a Validator node on the Hypergraph and/or metagraph networks.

The utility is packed with powerful features that abstract away the complexities of node management.
