In this tutorial, I'll show you how to install Strapi, a powerful open-source headless CMS, on Clear Linux Latest.
Before we can install Strapi, we need to make sure we have Node.js installed on our system:
sudo swupd bundle-add nodejs-basic
This command will install the basic Node.js packages on your Clear Linux system.
Next, we need to install yarn, a package manager for Node.js. Run the following command:
npm install --global yarn
Strapi requires MongoDB as its database. You can install MongoDB on Clear Linux by running the command:
sudo swupd bundle-add mongodb
We're now ready to install Strapi itself. Run the following command:
yarn global add strapi@beta
This command will install Strapi globally on your system.
To create a new Strapi project, run the following command:
strapi new my-project
This will create a new Strapi project in a directory called my-project
.
Once you have created a new Strapi project, you can start the server by running:
cd my-project
strapi start
This will start the Strapi server and make it available at http://localhost:1337
.
That's it! You've successfully installed Strapi on Clear Linux Latest and started a new Strapi project. From here, you can use Strapi to build powerful headless CMS-backed applications.
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!
