+Running the provided [playground](https://cognitive-engineering-lab.github.io/aquascope/) locally is also easy. First, you'll need to follow the above *from source* installation instructions. Then, you can launch the server by running `cargo make playground` and navigate to [`localhost:5173`](http://localhost:5173/) to explore.
