Hi, welcome to the site. Did you "set up a temporary server" as the guide suggests ? It doesn't provide how to do it, but presumably it should be easy to do

I'm one of the authors of HiGlass. Sorry you're getting that error. I just tried it out in a fresh environment and it worked for me. Just one thing is missing in the docs which is that you need to do import higlass.
