+## Web Interface
+
+Fabric now includes a built-in web interface that provides a GUI alternative to the command-line interface and an out-of-the-box website for those who want to get started with web development or blogging.  
+You can use this app as a GUI interface for Fabric, a ready to go blog-site, or a website template for your own projects.  
+
+The `web/src/lib/content` directory includes starter `.obsidian/` and `templates/` directories,  allowing you to open up the `web/src/lib/content/` directory as an [Obsidian.md](https://obsidian.md) vault. You can place your posts in the posts directory when you're ready to publish. 
+### Installing
+
+The GUI can be installed by navigating to the `web` directory and using `npm install`, `pnpm install`, or your favorite package manager. Then simply run the development server to start the app. 
+
+_You will need to run fabric in a separate terminal with the `fabric --serve` command._ 
+
+**From the fabric project `web/` directory:**
+```shell
+npm run dev
+
+## or ##
+
+pnpm run dev
+
+## or your equivalent 
+```
