Appwrite is an open-source, self-hosted backend server that helps developers easily build, develop and maintain their web and mobile apps without writing a single line of server-side code. This tutorial will walk you through the installation of Appwrite on Linux Mint.
Before installing Appwrite, you need to install some dependencies that are essential for its functioning. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y git curl zip unzip build-essential
To download and install Appwrite, run the following command:
curl -sS https://appwrite.io/install | sudo bash
This command will download and install the latest version of Appwrite on your system.
After the installation, you need to start the Appwrite server. Run the following command to start the server:
sudo appwrite start
This command will start the Appwrite server on the default port (80).
Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost to open the Appwrite web interface. If you want to access Appwrite from another device on your network, make sure to replace localhost with the IP address of the system hosting Appwrite.
That's it! You have successfully installed Appwrite on your Linux Mint system. You can now start building your web and mobile apps using Appwrite's powerful backend features. Happy coding!
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!
