The '''name''' of one available sweet (alternate usage ''<SWEET>'' ) is sdk/sugar.

Another's '''name''' (alternate usage ''<SWEET>'') is dextrose/sugar.

== Launch ==
To launch recent stable Sugar in emulator mode, type in Terminal activity or in any other terminal:
sweets dextrose/sugar:emulator
To explain:
: sweets - the command to run sweets
:: dextrose/sugar - the sweet you want
::: :emulator - a command for an emulator.
To make it possible to have additional dependencies involved, e.g., to run Browse activity, use {{Code|-S}} command-line argument:
sweets -S dextrose/sugar:emulator
: adding -S forces ... wording is not to hand.
Hopefully one of those commands opened Sugar for you.
If not, try
sweets sdk/sugar:emulator
or
sweets -S sdk/sugar:emulator
'''If you have Sugar running - Explore'''
=== If you have a negative response to all four commands above ===
So this is the point of this effort!
'''What can we conclude?'''
Go back, review #Upgrade above, If {{Code|sweets upgrade}} and {{Code|sweets -h}} were positive - sweets is installed, no?
What further commands or tools are available at this point?
One possibility, not all required packages are installed?
Referring to my own experience - [[Talk:Platform Team/Guide/Sugar via Sweets#Installation 2]] (which is considerably abbreviated!)
the command {{Code|sweets -R sdk/sugar:emulator}} invoked a massive download of packages - @alsroot what changed?
'''What would an experienced user do next?'''
I think it is worth discussing, and I am not sure about this, in this situation (in my experience) many investigatory commands gave misleading answers, I feel because the whole toolbox was not present. Have I drawn the wrong conclusion?
I am currently in the above described situation with Sweets on Debian Wheezy. What is suggested here, I will test there.
'''Alternatively''', {{Code|sweets}} might be run from the [[Platform_Team/Guide/Sweets_Packaging#Run_Sweets_from_sources|sources]]. This I have tried - I am not sure it adds content if one is stuck at this point?
