Yarr is a simple, modern RSS reader that can be easily installed on Arch Linux. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the process of installing Yarr from the official GitHub repository.
Before you begin, make sure that you have these prerequisites:
First, we need to install dependencies required to build Yarr. Open the terminal and enter the following command:
sudo pacman -S git npm
This command will install Git and Node.js package manager (npm) on your system.
Next, clone the Yarr repository by running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/nkanaev/yarr.git
This command will create a copy of the Yarr repository in your home directory.
Change into the cloned repository:
cd yarr
Then, install the required Node.js packages by running the following command:
npm install
Finally, start Yarr by running the following command:
npm run electron
Yarr should now start up and be ready to use.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Yarr on Arch Linux. Now that you have Yarr installed, you can start using it to read your favorite RSS feeds.
