2. Build them from source following the instructions on the [jellyfin-web repository](https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web)
3. Get the pre-built files from an existing installation of the server. For example, with a Windows server installation the client files are located at `C:\Program Files\Jellyfin\Server\jellyfin-web`
Once you have a copy of the built web client files, you need to copy them into a specific directory.
> `<repository root>/Mediabrowser.WebDashboard/jellyfin-web`
As part of the build process, this folder will be copied to the build output directory, where it can be accessed by the server.

```bash
cd jellyfin # Move into the repository directory
dotnet run --project Jellyfin.Server # Run the server startup project
dotnet run --project Jellyfin.Server --webdir /absolute/path/to/jellyfin-web/dist # Run the server startup project
```
A second option is to build the project and then run the resulting executable file directly. When running the executable directly you can easily add command line options. Add the `--help` flag to list details on all the supported command line options.
