DailyNotes is a simple note-taking application that allows you to create and manage notes easily. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install DailyNotes on Arch Linux.
Before we start with the installation, make sure that your system is up to date by running the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
DailyNotes is hosted on GitHub, so we need to install git to download the source code. To install git, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S git
Next, we need to download the DailyNotes source code from GitHub. To do this, we will clone the repository using git. Run the following command to download the source code:
git clone https://github.com/m0ngr31/DailyNotes.git
DailyNotes requires some dependencies to be installed before we can build and run the application. Run the following command to install the necessary dependencies:
sudo pacman -S qt5-base qt5-declarative qt5-quickcontrols2 qt5-charts
Now that we have downloaded the source code and installed the dependencies, we can build and install DailyNotes. Navigate to the directory where the source code is downloaded using the following command:
cd DailyNotes
Create a build directory:
mkdir build && cd build
Configure the build system using the following command:
qmake ..
Build the application using the following command:
make
Finally, install DailyNotes with the following command:
sudo make install
Now that DailyNotes is installed, we can launch the application by typing dailynotes in the terminal. Alternatively, you can also launch DailyNotes from the application menu or by creating a desktop shortcut.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed DailyNotes on Arch Linux.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
