To follow this tutorial, you will need the following:

Step 1: Install the Required Dependencies

Before installing Lura, you need to install the dependencies that it requires. Run the following command to install the dependencies:

Step 2: Install Go

Lura is written in Go, so you need to install Go on your system. To install Go, follow these steps:

   This will download the Go binary distribution to the /tmp directory.

2. Extract the downloaded archive using the following command:

   sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf /tmp/go.tar.gz
   

3. Set the Go environment variables by adding the following lines to the end of the /etc/profile file:

   export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
   export GOPATH=$HOME/go
   export PATH=$PATH:$GOPATH/bin
   

   Save the changes and exit the file.

4. Load the environment variables using the following command:

   source /etc/profile
   

5. Verify that Go is installed correctly by running the following command:

   go version
   

   This will display the installed Go version on your system. If you see the Go version, then it means that Go is installed correctly.
