Has everyone seen the wifi visualization that I added to Wireshark? It's experimental and has to be turned on in the 802.11 preferences.

I'm afraid if you have to ask that, this program might not be for you :)

There's a script called './start' in the toplevel directory. It
requires you to have the appengine SDK installed (unfortunately). In
retrospect, using appengine for this was a bad idea, but we all make
mistakes in our youth. But anyway, you can download the appengine SDK
and run a local copy for free, so you don't need actual appengine.

So how do you use it and what's the output look like?

I downloaded it and opened the index.html file in a browser and
it doesn't appear to work.

It's been years since I had to dig this deep into the wifi stack.
Avery's group produced a lot of cool tools while
gfiber was in growth mode, he's since moved onto doing cool things
with wireguard ( https://tailscale.com/ )and I doubt he's maintaining
this anymore. We had lots and lots of other very adhoc tools lying
around... parsing wifi caps is a !@#!!

Sorry about that, wavedroplet never quite got to something like
release quality. It requires more work.

However, it shouldn't just totally fail either :)  Perhaps there's an
error visible in the javascript console, or python is emitting a
problem somewhere (note that it's a python2 program, not python3).

Actually, now that I think of it, I don't know why there's an
index.html at all. You definitely need to run the python backend and
connect to that, which probably renders the index.html as a template.

Have fun,

Avery

Thanks for the reply. And how do I run the python backend?
