Glosa is an open-source platform that allows real-time collaboration on text documents. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to install Glosa on EndeavourOS Latest using the command line:
Before we start, it's important to update your operating system to ensure you have the latest versions of the required dependencies. In the terminal, type:
sudo pacman -Syu
This will update your system packages to the latest version.
Glosa requires Node.js to run. Install Node.js and NPM by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo pacman -S nodejs npm
Once Node.js is installed, verify the installation by checking the version number of Node.js and NPM using the following command:
node -v
npm -v
Clone the Glosa server repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/glosa/glosa-server.git
The above command will download the Glosa code from GitHub to the local directory.
Switch to the Glosa server directory by running:
cd glosa-server
Now, install the required packages and start the Glosa server by running the following commands:
npm install
npm start
This will install all the required packages and start the Glosa server on your local machine.
Once the Glosa server is started successfully, you are now ready to use Glosa. Open your web browser and go to the following URL:
http://localhost:8080
This opens the Glosa server application in your browser, allowing you to create, edit and collaborate on text documents in real-time.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Glosa on EndeavourOS Latest. You can now use Glosa to collaborate on text documents in real-time.
