In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Appwrite on the latest version of Elementary OS using the terminal.
Before installing any new software, it is essential to update and upgrade the system packages to their latest versions.
To do this, open the terminal and run the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Appwrite requires some dependencies to be installed on your system. These dependencies include curl, git, and docker. To install these dependencies, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo apt-get install curl git docker.io
After the installation is successful, you can check the docker version by running the following command:
docker version
To download the Appwrite installation script, run the following command in the terminal:
curl -sS https://appwrite.io/install | sudo bash
This command will download and run the installation script in the terminal. The script will prompt you to enter the API Host and API Port for the Appwrite installation.
After entering the API host and port, the script will start installing Appwrite on your system. Wait for the installation process to complete.
Once the installation is complete, you can access the Appwrite dashboard by opening a web browser and entering the following URL:
http://localhost:4000/dashboard/
This will open the Appwrite dashboard in your web browser. You can now log in using the credentials you provided during the installation process.
In this tutorial, we showed you how to install Appwrite on the latest version of Elementary OS using the terminal. You can now start using Appwrite for your application development needs.
