YunoHost is an open-source server operating system that aims to make self-hosting accessible to everyone. It allows individuals and organizations to easily and securely host web applications and services, such as email, file sharing, and social media, on their own hardware. This tutorial will guide you through the installation process of YunoHost on Debian Latest.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Update the System

Start by logging in to the server using SSH as a user with sudo privileges. Then, update the system by running the following commands:

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Step 2: Install YunoHost

To install YunoHost on Debian, you need to add the YunoHost repository to the system. To do that, follow these steps:

  1. Download the GPG key:

    wget https://repo.yunohost.org/yunohost.asc
    
  2. Add the GPG key:

    sudo apt-key add yunohost.asc
    
  3. Add the YunoHost repository to the system:

    echo 'deb http://forge.yunohost.org/debian/ buster stable' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yunohost.list
    
  4. Update the system again:

    sudo apt update
    
  5. Finally, install YunoHost by running this command:

    sudo apt install yunohost
    

Step 3: Set up the Domain Name

Choose a domain name that you want to use for your YunoHost server. You can either purchase a new domain or use an existing one. If you are using an existing domain name, make sure it is pointing to the server’s IP address.

After you have a domain name, run the following command to set it up with YunoHost:

sudo yunohost domain add example.com

Replace example.com with your own domain name.

Step 4: Finalize the Installation

To finalize the installation, run the following command:
