Writing is a minimalistic text editor that supports Markdown syntax. It is designed to be lightweight and distraction-free, making it a great choice for writers who want to focus on their work. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps required to install Writing on Debian Latest.
Before installing any new software on your system, it is important to update your system packages to their latest version. To do this, open your terminal and enter the following command:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
This will update all of the packages on your system to their latest version.
Next, we need to install the dependencies required by Writing. These dependencies include Node.js and npm. To install them, enter the following command:
sudo apt-get install nodejs npm
Now that we have installed the required dependencies, we can download Writing from its official website. To do this, open your terminal and enter the following command:
wget https://github.com/josephernest/writing/archive/refs/tags/v0.4.1.tar.gz
This will download the latest version of Writing to your current directory.
Once the download is complete, we need to extract the archive. To do this, enter the following command:
tar -xvzf v0.4.1.tar.gz
This will extract the contents of the archive to a new directory called writing-0.4.1.
Now that we have extracted Writing, we can install it. To do this, navigate to the extracted directory by entering the following command:
cd writing-0.4.1
Next, run the following command to install Writing:
sudo npm install -g
Once the installation is complete, you can launch Writing by running the following command:
writing
This will open the Writing text editor in your terminal.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Writing on Debian Latest.
