Wagtail is a popular open-source content management system based on Django, designed to make it easy to create beautiful websites. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Wagtail on EndeavourOS Latest.
Before you begin, you need to ensure that you have the following:
First, update the system to ensure that you have the latest security patches and software updates. To do this, open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo pacman -Syu
Enter your password when prompted and wait for the update to complete.
Wagtail requires Python 3.6 or higher, and Pip is the package manager for Python. To install both, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S python python-pip
Again, enter your password when prompted and wait for the installation to complete.
Now that you have Python and Pip installed, you can use Pip to install Wagtail. Run the following command:
pip install wagtail
This will download and install Wagtail and its dependencies.
Once Wagtail is installed, you can create a new project. In the terminal, navigate to the directory where you want to create the project and run the following command:
wagtail start myproject
Replace myproject with the name of your project.
This will create a new Wagtail project directory with the name you specified.
After creating the project, you can start the server to view your new website. Navigate to the project directory and run the following command:
python manage.py runserver
This will start the server and display the URL of your website. Open a web browser and enter the URL to view your website.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Wagtail on EndeavourOS Latest and created a new project. You can now use Wagtail to build beautiful websites.
