Hi, it's Frank from ArangoDB. We have now included the starter in the package. It is now possible to start a cluster with a single command line. For example, to start a test cluster on a single machine, "arangodb --starter.local" is all you need to type. Starting on 3 machines requires a "arangodb" on the first machine and "arangodb --dataDir=./dbX --join serverX1" on the others.

Thanks Frank. I wonder if Web Fronted is in order akin to Counchbase setup process. Ultimately CLI tools are of course the king of the Ops world when maintaining clusters. Simple Web app can go long way though for attracting new users. First impression matters. My 2c.
