Prerequisites
There are a small number of prerequisites for deploying the Xiid Commander.
We recommend using a Cloud Service Provider (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure) for your Commander deployment, although the Commander can be easily deployed on-premise or practically anywhere.
Please also ensure that you comply with the STLink Prerequisites before starting your deployment.
For a comprehensive overview of prerequisites, see the Deployment Requirements PDF.

You will need to provide the following:
- A Linux or Windows machine that the Commander and first STLink will be installed on
