CryptPad is a free, open-source web-based suite that offers end-to-end encryption for secure collaboration on documents, sheets, and presentations. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the steps of installing CryptPad on Fedora Server latest.
Before you start, you need to have the following requirements:
The first step in installing CryptPad is updating the packages on your server. Open the terminal/shell and run the following commands:

These commands will update your server packages and upgrade any outdated packages.
CryptPad is built on Node.js. Therefore, the next step is to install Node.js on your server:

Pm2 is a production process manager for Node.js, which will help us manage the CryptPad application. To install pm2, run the following command:
sudo npm install pm2@latest -g
Once the installation is complete, we can move on to the next step.
To install CryptPad, you need to clone the CryptPad GitHub repository:
git clone https://github.com/xwiki-labs/cryptpad.git
Next, navigate to the CryptPad directory:
cd cryptpad
Now we need to install the project dependencies:
npm install
