In this tutorial, we will walk through the process of installing Sandstorm on Fedora CoreOS latest. Sandstorm is an open-source platform for self-hosting web applications. It provides a secure, easy-to-use environment for running web applications without having to worry about server administration.
You can download the Sandstorm installation script using curl:
$ curl https://install.sandstorm.io | bash
To run the installation script, you need to be root or have sudo privileges.
$ sudo bash sandstorm-installer.sh
This will start the installation process and download the necessary software packages. During the installation, you will be prompted to create an admin account and set an admin password. After the installation is complete, you will see a message indicating that the Sandstorm installation was successful.
To start Sandstorm, enter the following command:
$ sudo systemctl start sandstorm
This will start the Sandstorm service and make it accessible through a web browser. You can view the Sandstorm dashboard by navigating to http://localhost:6080.
To access Sandstorm from another machine, you need to open port 6080 on your firewall. Once this is done, you can access Sandstorm from your web browser by entering the IP address or hostname of the Fedora CoreOS machine and the port number, for example:
http://192.168.0.100:6080
This will bring up the Sandstorm login page. Enter the administrator credentials you created during the installation process to access the Sandstorm dashboard.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Sandstorm on Fedora CoreOS latest. You can now use Sandstorm to self-host web applications on your own server, without having to worry about server administration.
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!
