I’m using a remote high spec linux server for training spacy models and prodigy. Is there any possibility to start the prodigy server remotely, similar to jupyter notebook with ‘–no-browser --port=XXXX’ option? ---

Try setting the environment variable `export PRODIGY_HOST="0.0.0.0"` before starting the Prodigy server. This should advertise the server on the WAN IP, instead of the loopback interface (localhost, which is the default). You can also configure the port with the `PRODIGY_PORT` environment variable. For production setups, you might want to look into using a reverse proxy in front of the service. I like to use Traefik. Other popular choices include Apache, Nginx and Caddy. ---

Thanks! I’ll give a go with this.
