Memos is an open-source, self-hosted note-taking app that allows users to create, store and organize notes. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Memos on Debian Latest.
To install Memos on Debian Latest, you need to have the following:
Memos is built using Node.js, which means we need to install Node.js and npm before we can install Memos. You can install them using the following command:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs npm
After installing Node.js and npm, verify the installation by checking their versions using the following commands:
node -v
npm -v
Now we need to clone the Memos codebase from the Github repository. To do so, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/usememos/memos.git
After cloning the Memos codebase, navigate into the cloned directory and install its dependencies using the following command:
cd memos
npm install
After installing the dependencies, we need to configure Memos by creating a .env file. To do so, navigate to the Memos directory and run the following command:
cp env.dist .env
Edit the .env file as per your requirements. For example, you can set the database, port, and admin credentials.
nano .env
Finally, we are ready to run Memos on our Debian server. To do so, run the following command from the Memos directory:
npm start
By default, Memos will run on port 3000. You can access the Memos app by opening your web browser and navigating to http://<YOUR-SERVER-IP>:3000/.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install and configure Memos on Debian Latest. Now you can start using Memos to create, store and organize your notes.
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!
