Stump is a lightweight and fast terminal-based note-taking application for developers. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Stump on FreeBSD.
Before starting with the installation process, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to update the FreeBSD system to the latest version. To do that, execute the following command:
sudo pkg update && sudo pkg upgrade
This command will update all the installed packages and bring your system up to date.
The next step is to install Git on your FreeBSD system. Git is a distributed version control system and is required to download and install Stump. Run the following command to install Git:
sudo pkg install git
After installing Git, use it to clone the Stump repository from GitHub. Run the following command to clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/mil-mark/stump.git
Once the Stump repository is downloaded, you need to install some dependencies to run it. Run the following command to install the dependencies:
sudo pkg install ncurses make
After the dependencies are installed, navigate to the Stump directory and run the following commands to compile and install it:
cd stump
make
sudo make install
This will compile and install Stump on your FreeBSD system.
To verify that Stump is installed correctly, run the following command to run it:
stump
If everything is working correctly, Stump should open up in the terminal.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Stump on FreeBSD. Now you can use Stump to organize your notes, snippets and code in the terminal.
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!
