-====== Headless mode ======
+If you are not sure what interface you need for your application you can consider the following page: [[user-guide:additional_interfaces_where_to_start|What interface do I need]]
-GroIMP can be started without its graphical interface, in headless. The headless mode executes a provided model and afterwards closes GroIMP. Capturing any feedback from the simulation must be included in the model.

+**<color #ed1c24>This Feature is currently not working!!!!</color>**
-More information on the headless mode:
+GroIMP can be started as a server. Then, other instances of GroIMP can connect to the GroIMP server. This enables multiple user concurrently accessing a single model from different devices  as well as modelling on a powerful remote server.

-====== Command Line Interface ======
-GroIMP can be started without its graphical interface, with a CLI. Unlike the Headless mode, the CLI enables interaction with the model during run time including opening and closing models, running simulations, editing RGG files etc.

-====== HTTP Server ======
-It is possible to start GroIMP as a HTTP server to then send model paths via HTTP for GroIMP to execute.
-After GroIMP executed the model values can be returned to the HTTP client who send the request. It is possible to send several models in series or in parallel.
