• Read Messages from your Kafka Topics

• Simple GUI that's easy to follow

• Connect Your Prometheus Instance for metrics

• FlowKat relies on KafkaJS in order to aggregate messages and Prometheus to graph metrics; if Prometheus is not hooked up to your Kafka Cluster instance, FlowKat should still be able to deliver compilated messages
• Clone this repo: https://github.com/oslabs-beta/flowkat.git
• Run the following commands in the root folder:
  • npm install
  • npm run watch
  • npm run package-win or npm run package-linux
• Open FlowKat
• Enter the port address for your Kafka broker and (optionally) your Prometheus instance to have FlowKat retrieve messages and metrics
