RhodeCode is a web-based source code management tool that helps developers to manage and track their code commits. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install RhodeCode on your Elementary OS latest version.
Before you start with the installation, you need to have the following prerequisites:
First, you need to install the necessary dependencies for RhodeCode. You can use the following command to install the dependencies:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y gcc python3-dev python3-pip
You can install RhodeCode using pip. You can use the following command to install RhodeCode:

Uncomment and change the server.socket_host setting to your system's IP address.
Finally, you need to start the RhodeCode server. You can use the following command to start the server:

Once the RhodeCode server is running, you can access RhodeCode by visiting http://your-ip-address:5000 in your web browser.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to install RhodeCode on your Elementary OS latest version. You can now use RhodeCode to manage your source code and track your code commits.
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!
