# Robot Raconteur Service Browser

This repository contains a Service Browser for Robot Raconteur to allow the user to view the available Robot Raconteur 
Services being advertised on the network to which the computer is connected. Use this tool to find the available
services and determine the connection information to use with other clients. This tool will also provide the
candidate connection URLs for the services.

Some clients have built-in discovery abilities that do not require this tool. Check the documentation for the client
you are using to see if this tool is necessary.
