KeeWeb is a free, open-source password manager that allows you to store and manage your passwords securely. This tutorial will explain how to install KeeWeb on Debian latest.
Before you start, ensure that you have the following:
KeeWeb is based on Node.js, so you need to install it on your system. Use the following command to install Node.js:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nodejs
Then, verify the installation by running the following command:
node --version
It should return the version number of Node.js that you have installed.
npm is a package manager for Node.js. You need to install it in order to install KeeWeb. Use the following command to install npm:
sudo apt-get install npm
Now, download the KeeWeb source code from keeweb.info/">https://keeweb.info/ and extract it to a folder of your choice. For example:
cd ~/Downloads
wget https://github.com/keeweb/keeweb/archive/refs/tags/v1.15.10.zip
sudo apt-get install unzip
unzip v1.15.10.zip
Navigate to the extracted KeeWeb folder and install its dependencies using the following commands:
cd keeweb-1.15.10
npm install
Now that you have installed KeeWeb and all its dependencies, you can serve it on Debian using the following command:
npm start
This will start the KeeWeb server on port 8080. To access the KeeWeb interface, open your web browser and go to http://localhost:8080.
You have now installed KeeWeb on Debian and can use it to store and manage your passwords securely. Keep in mind that KeeWeb is a self-hosted password manager, which means that you are responsible for securing the server that it runs on.
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!
