how can I see Distri.js in action on my console

I'm a student and I have a project in distributed computing and I would like to use Distri.js. I have installed it in my computer but before starting the project I tried to executed the collatz example but I don't know how to see it in my console and how getting the result. So I would like to have more information about and which command can I use for checking it in my console.
I'm hoping to have an answer soon.
Ps: excuse for my mistake I'm not a English man
The current tutorial is out of date, and I was working on updating it before I came down with some really bad virus.
The master branch is out of date as well, so please use the dev branch. (For both Distri.js and Distri-Node).
Also, you made no mention of using Distri-Node. Could you explain your current setup? Distri-Node is required for Distri.js. (I can't really answer anything else until I know how you're going about things)
Also, please note volunteer computing is a subset of distributed computing. I'm not sure this library is what you're looking for, so check with your profressor to see if it is okay.
My project is to set up a website and if someone visite the website, the program ask him if he can be a volunteer for computing. At the end the program get back every result.
I have downloaded my current setup on "Distri.js.org" and before installing it I installed Node.js first. Then I used a npm command to install it. When I use node commande on javascript files from collatz example everything is ok and when I lauch the html file (click on the button) the windows pop appear for adding a server.But then I can't see what's going on.
You aren't connected to the server yet. Click "Add Server" (the yellow button on the menu) and enter localhost:8081, then hit Enter. If you don't hit enter nothing will happen. Try that and tell me what happens.
I have add the server but nothing heppen ,a pop up has just gone. which command can I use on the console to see what happen
Did you make sure to hit enter? To bring back the menu, call Distri.settings.
yes I hit enter! can you tell what happen when it's work and how to see that please
yes I hit enter! can you tell me what happen when it's work and how to see that please
If you put in everything correctly, hit "Finish" and it should work. Again, if you are not, use the dev branch.
I have add the server and at the end I hit finish but whe I try to go on "http://localhost:8080/" this sentence "Upgrade Required" is display on
Upgrade Required means you are trying to access a WebSocket through HTTP. Distri.js needs to be in an HTML file. So grab a copy of Distri.js (by cloning the repo and running webpack), and create an HTML file with these contents.

<script src="path/to/distri.min.js"></script>And now I'm confused. Please send me a screenshot of what you're seeing.
A screenshot of your Distri console and website, sorry.
Here, I am mega confused on what's going on, so I recorded a video on how to do it.
I hope this helps. I'll leave this issue open for further questions.
