In this tutorial, we will go through the steps required to install Dat Project on FreeBSD Latest. Dat Project is a decentralized data sharing platform that allows users to store and share large amounts of data across multiple devices.
Before we can start with the installation process, we first need to make sure that the following prerequisites are met:
The first step is to update the FreeBSD system to ensure that we have the latest security updates and software packages. To do this, run the following command in your terminal:
sudo freebsd-update fetch install
Dat Project is built on top of Node.js, so we need to install Node.js on our system. We will use the package manager pkg to install Node.js. Run the following command to install pkg:
sudo pkg install pkg
Once pkg is installed, we can use it to install Node.js. Run the following command to install Node.js:
sudo pkg install node
Now we can install Dat Project using npm, the Node.js package manager. Run the following command to install Dat Project:
sudo npm install -g dat
After the installation is complete, you can check that Dat Project is installed by running the following command:
dat --version
This should output the current version of Dat Project installed on your system.
In this tutorial, we have gone through the steps required to install Dat Project on FreeBSD Latest. With Dat Project installed, you can now start using it to share and store data across multiple devices.
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!
