Assuming the BlobToolKit Viewer code and dependencies are available (see Installation), the blobtools host command provides a convenient way to start the Viewer to begin interactive exploration of all BlobDir datasets in a directory. Wrapper commands in blobtools view provide ways to call blobtools host in common scenarios, e.g. on a remote server or to start a local inteactive session.
