Operator Guide

This guide is for people who run QDash, configure deployments, and support users.

Use these pages when you need to start the stack, change environment settings, check service health, or understand how users interact with projects and workflows.

Start Here

• Setup: create .env, choose Docker Compose or host-side development, and sign in.
• Operations: start, stop, inspect logs, and handle common local failures.
• Workflows: understand Prefect, deployment-service, and user-flow-worker roles.

User-Facing Features

• Authentication: users, admin role, password management.
• Projects and Sharing: project membership and roles.
• Dashboard: metrics, notes, and filtering.
• Cryostats and Cool-downs: cryostat/cool-down data management.
