To start project, first run `kraken.server` instance.

```
$> php kraken.server

```

Then, check if connection is working in another terminal window:

```
$> php kraken server:ping

```

If everything works correctly, as final step run the application using:

```
$> php kraken project:create

```

After project has been created successfully, go to `http://localhost:6080` address in your browser and you should be able to see and use examplary chat.

To close whole project, use:

```
$> php kraken project:destroy

```

If you have problems with configuring console-server connection, you can also try alternative start.
