To run the homeserver, start at the root of the Dendrite repository and run:
```
go run ./cmd/dendrite-demo-yggdrasil
```
The following command line arguments are accepted:
*`-peer tcp://a.b.c.d:e` to specify a static Yggdrasil peer to connect to - you will need to supply this if you do not have another Yggdrasil node on your network
*`-port 12345` to specify a port to listen on for client connections
If you need to find an internet peer, take a look at [this list](https://publicpeers.neilalexander.dev/).
Then point your favourite Matrix client to the homeserver URL`http://localhost:8008` (or whichever `-port` you specified), create an account and log in.
If your peering connection is operational then you should see a `Connected TCP:` line in the log output. If not then try a different peer.
Once logged in, you should be able to open the room directory or join a room by its ID.
