Strapi is an open-source content management system that helps you build, deploy, and manage your applications. Here are the steps to install Strapi on Arch Linux.
Before starting with the installation process, make sure you have the following software installed on your system:
First, open a terminal window on your Arch Linux system.
Install SQLite if not already present by typing:
sudo pacman -S sqlite
Install Node.js if not already present by typing:
sudo pacman -S nodejs
Now, install the Strapi CLI by running the following command:
npm install strapi@beta -g
Once the Strapi CLI is installed, create a new Strapi project by typing:
strapi new my-project --quickstart
Replace my-project
with the desired name of your project.
After executing the above command, Strapi should generate a new project using SQLite as the database by default.
Next, navigate to the project directory by typing:
cd my-project
Finally, start your Strapi application by running the following command:
strapi start
You will be able to access your Strapi application on your browser at http://localhost:1337/admin
.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Strapi on your Arch Linux system.
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!
