I have tried my best to understand the fundamental ins and outs of running 
Machinekit on BBB from my windows desktop, but there are so many technical 
concepts and approaches that I just can't fully understand everything. 
Although it seems I'm towards the end of this, I'm already frustrated, and 
since working for a sort of tight deadline I need some practical help, and 
need that in layman's terms, into the bargain, please.

I followed these instructions 
<https://machinekoder.com/machinekit-debian-stretch-beaglebone-black/> to 
run M.K. on BBB from my desktop. But I am badly thrown off. I have 
apparently successfully done everything on that instruction page, but just 
don't know *how to start what!! *I don't know *what command to use on the 
PuTTy. *

(Please, as far as possible, don't direct me to start everything from 
scratch, as I already had Debian Jessie installed on BBB, but decided to 
change it to Stretch.)

My newbie questions:

   1. Should Machinekit Client be installed on my Windows OS or on the 
   BBB?!  (I already have M.K Client on my Windows OS. but once I start it, it 
   keeps loading in no veil, with *no available instances*.)
   2. According to the first question, which link should I go with on this 
   page <https://github.com/machinekit/QtQuickVcp>.
   3. AFAIK, I need a U.I on my desktop to give me access to the M.K. Is 
   this UI the Machinekit Client? How can I start it from PuTTY?

FYI:
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch)
            Kernel: Linux 4.4.155-ti-rt-r153
      Architecture: arm

Thanks in advance
