+# headless-demo
+
+**Experimental feature!**
+
+Flipper can run plugins in a headless mode - expose their API over the wire. This is a simple example of how it might look like.
+
+## Quick start
+
+0. Run `yarn` from this repo to install dependencies
+0. Start Flipper Server: from `desktop` folder run `yarn flipper-server`
+0. Start an Android device
+0. Run `yarn start` from this repo
+
+## What happens under the hood
+
+0. This script connects to Flipper via WebSockets
+0. It fetches a list of devices
+0. It fetches a list of available headless plugins for the Android device
+0. It activates `headless-demo` plugin
+0. It sends `increment` command to the plugin
