Run the server:
```
```sh
cd specter-desktop
python3 -m cryptoadvance.specter server
```
You can also run it as a daemon, using tor, provide ssl certificates to run over https. Https is especially important because browsers don't allow the website to access camera without secure connection, and we need camera access to scan QR codes.
An example how to run specter server in the background (`--daemon`) with ssl certificates (`--key`, `--cert`) over tor:
```sh
python -m cryptoadvance.specter server --tor=mytorpassword --cert=./cert.pem --key=./key.pem --daemon
```
If your Bitcoin Core is using a default data folder the app should detect it automatically. If not, consider setting `rpcuser` and `rpcpassword` in the `bitcoin.conf` file and in the app settings.
