+LogViewer
+------------------
+
+For each device, Tango collects the logs as well. These can be viewed with the LogViewer X11 application. Make sure ``$DISPLAY`` is set, and run::
+
+  cd docker-compose
+  make start logviewer
+
+If LogViewer does not appear, check ``docker logs logviewer`` to see what went wrong.
+
+For information on how to use the LogViewer, see https://tango-controls.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tools-and-extensions/built-in/logviewer/logviewer.html.
+
+.. note:: If you need an X11 server on Windows, install `VcXsrv <https://sourceforge.net/projects/vcxsrv/>`_, disable access control during its startup, and use ``export DISPLAY=host.docker.internal:0`` in WSL.
