How_to_Browse.md #1

\
If you're simply curious about the Perforce Workshop, take a look at the
[project pages](:Category:Projects_by_Type "wikilink") in this wiki, or
browse the depot directly using Swarm or any Perforce client of your
choosing:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Browse with Swarm](http://swarm.workshop.perforce.com)

:   The recommended interface to the Wokshop is
    [Swarm](http://www.perforce.com/product/components/swarm). To browse
    the depot with Swarm, just click on the browse link above, or point
    your browser to <http://swarm.workshop.perforce.com/>.

<!-- -->

:   Swarm lets you navigate files, observe activity, and browse
    file content. (The links on this page to Perforce Workshop paths are
    handled by Swarm.) [Start here](http://swarm.workshop.perforce.com)
    to try it out.

<!-- -->

:   Swarm is currently available from the [Perforce
    Downloads](http://www.perforce.com/downloads/swarm) page.

**Perforce Clients**

:   You can run any of the available Perforce client programs (P4, P4V,
    P4Web, etc.) on your own machine to access the Workshop. To connect
    to the Perforce Workshop, just set your Perforce port (P4PORT) to:

<!-- -->

:   

    :   `workshop.perforce.com:1666`

<!-- -->

:   Note that we periodically purge client specs created by
    unregistered users. You are free to create new clients but unless
    you're a registered user, don't count on having a persistent client
    spec in the depot. See below for instructions on becoming a
    registered user.

<!-- -->

:   Perforce client programs are available from the [Perforce
    Downloads](http://www.perforce.com/downloads) page.
