KeystoneJS is an open-source content management system (CMS) and web application framework built on Node.js and MongoDB. It can be used to quickly build websites, APIs, and mobile applications. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install KeystoneJS on Kali Linux Latest.
Before starting the installation process, you must ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
To install KeystoneJS, we need to first install the required packages. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python build-essential
Now, we can install KeystoneJS using the Node Package Manager (npm). Run the following command in the terminal:
npm install -g generator-keystone
This command will install the KeystoneJS generator globally on your system.
With KeystoneJS installed, we can now create a new project. In the terminal, navigate to the directory where you want to create the project and run the following command:
yo keystone
This command will launch the KeystoneJS generator, which will guide you through the process of creating a new project. You will be asked to provide information such as the name of the project, the database connection string, and the initial user data. Once you have filled out all the required information, KeystoneJS will create a new project in the specified directory.
Once the project has been created, navigate to its directory in the terminal and run the following command to start the KeystoneJS server:
npm start
This command will start the server and make your KeystoneJS project accessible on http://localhost:3000/. You can open a web browser and navigate to this address to see your project's homepage.
In this tutorial, we have gone through the steps to install KeystoneJS on Kali Linux Latest. We first installed the required packages, then used npm to install the KeystoneJS generator. We then created a new project using the generator and started the KeystoneJS server. With these steps, you can now use KeystoneJS to quickly build your website, API, or mobile application.
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!
