SignalK connection: instrument panel shows no displays

And if you install it from github you have to install dependencies and build it. Far easier to just use it and install updates from the app store.

But first things first: what data sources do you have in the system? Is it just that you have no data?



I should clarify, I installed SignalK (which launches a tab in Chromium) then, when I click on @SignalK/Instrumentpanel (via Webapps) It doesn't show any widgets as demo does but it has a link in the center that says SignalK Instrument Panel that takes me to Github.  I then cloned that and installed that.  Is that needed?  

The data source is the Globalsat GPS dongle that I can see data from.  I have the connection as TCP localhost 10110.  Enabled.  Is that the best way to get GPS serial data?  I saw in the Openplotter document it lists several connections- how does one know which one to use and when?  

I am hoping to be able to display the widgets then, feed my GPS data to them.  Thanks tkurki
