Espial is a minimal, modern web browser for Linux. Here is a step-by-step tutorial for installing Espial on EndeavourOS latest.
Before you can install Espial, you should update your system.
To do this, open the terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T
and type the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
This will update your system to the latest version.
Before you can install Espial, you need to install some dependencies.
To install these dependencies, run the following command in the terminal:
sudo pacman -S libx11 libxcb libxft
To install Espial, you need to first download the source code from GitHub.
To do this, open the terminal and navigate to the directory where you want to download the source code. You can do this with the cd
command.
For example, if you want to download the source code to your home directory, you can run the following command:
cd ~
Once you are in the directory where you want to download the source code, run the following command in the terminal:
git clone https://github.com/jonschoning/espial.git
This will download the source code to a new directory called espial
.
Now, navigate to the espial
directory by running the following command:
cd espial
Finally, build and install Espial by running the following commands:
make
sudo make install
This will compile the code and install the Espial binary on your system.
To launch Espial, simply run the following command in the terminal:
espial
This will open the Espial browser.
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!
