In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Dashdot on the latest version of Elementary OS using the command line.
Before we begin, ensure that your system is up to date by running the following command:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
Dashdot requires certain dependencies before it can be installed on your system. Open the terminal and run the following command to install them:
sudo apt-get install python3 python3-pip python3-setuptools python3-wheel python3-dev libffi-dev libssl-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev libjpeg8-dev zlib1g-dev -y
Once the dependencies have been installed, we need to clone the Dashdot repository to your local machine. Open the terminal and navigate to the directory where you want to clone the repository using the cd command.
cd /path/to/desired/directory/
Next, use the git clone command to clone the Dashdot repository.
git clone https://github.com/MauriceNino/dashdot.git
After cloning the repository, navigate inside the dashdot directory using the cd command:
cd dashdot
Now that we are inside the dashdot directory, we can use pip to install Dashdot package by running the following command:
sudo pip3 install .
After the installation is complete, verify that Dashdot has been installed correctly by running the following command:
dashdot --version
You should get an output similar to this:
Dashdot version 1.5.0
This confirms that Dashdot has been successfully installed on your Elementary OS.
In this tutorial, we have successfully installed Dashdot on the latest version of Elementary OS using the command line. Now you can use Dashdot to build beautiful and interactive web apps on your Elementary OS system.
