Running Streamlit on Ubuntu 21.04

So, you decide to start Streamlit. To do this, you will need to log into your server using SSH, the Streamlit process will close after logging out of the SSH session. To start Streamlit when you leave your SSH session, use tmux, a terminal muxer. Using a terminal multiplexer will allow you to run the Streamlit process in the background. In order for you to be able to create a tmux session, you need to run the following command:

tmux new -s StreamlitSession

To view your deployed web application, visit your server’s IP address at the default Streamlit port, 8501. For example:
