Dashing is a Sinatra-based web framework that allows developers to create beautiful dashboards. In this tutorial, we will explain how to install Dashing on Fedora CoreOS.
Before you start with the installation, make sure that you have the following:
To install Dashing, you need to install some required packages on Fedora CoreOS. Use the following command to install the packages:
sudo dnf install -y rubygems ruby-devel gcc gcc-c++ make
This will install the RubyGems package manager, Ruby development headers, and the GCC compiler.
After installing the prerequisites, you can now proceed to install Dashing by running the following command:
sudo gem install dashing
Once Dashing is installed, you can start developing your dashboard. To create a new dashboard, use the following command:
dashing new mydashboard
This will create a new directory named mydashboard
with the necessary files and folders to start developing your dashboard with Dashing.
To start the Dashing dashboard and see how it looks, navigate to the directory where you created your dashboard and start it with the following command:
dashing start
This will start the Dashing server and open your dashboard in your default browser at http://localhost:3030.
Now you know how to install Dashing on Fedora CoreOS and create a new dashboard. You can start developing your dashboard by editing the HTML, SCSS, and Ruby files inside the dashboard directory.
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!
