We're going to use Prometheus to scrape the metrics from our node, and use Grafana to on a dashboard.
Let's begin by installing both Prometheus and Grafana, which one can do with e.g. Homebrew:

```
### Windows
#### Using Chocolatey
```powershell
choco install prometheus
choco install grafana
```
#### Manual installation
1. Download the latest Prometheus from [prometheus.io/download](https://prometheus.io/download/)
- Select the Windows binary (.zip) for your architecture (typically windows-amd64)
2. Download the latest Grafana from [grafana.com/grafana/download](https://grafana.com/grafana/download)
- Choose the Windows installer (.msi) or standalone version
3. Extract Prometheus to a location of your choice (e.g., `C:\prometheus`)
4. Install Grafana by running the installer or extracting the standalone version
5. Configure Prometheus and Grafana to run as services if needed
Then, kick off the Prometheus and Grafana services:
```bash
# For macOS
brew services start prometheus
brew services start grafana
# For Linux (systemd-based distributions)
sudo systemctl start prometheus
sudo systemctl start grafana-server
# For Windows (if installed as services)
Start-Service prometheus
Start-Service grafana
```
This will start a Prometheus service which [by default scrapes itself about the current instance](https://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/first_steps/#:~:text=The%20job%20contains%20a%20single,%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A9090%2Fmetrics.). So you'll need to change its config to hit your Reth nodes metrics endpoint at `localhost:9001` which you set using the `--metrics` flag.
