In this step-by-step tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Fabric on Linux Mint. Fabric is a Python library that simplifies the task of remote execution and deployment of applications.
Before installing Fabric, you need to make sure that the following prerequisites are met:
Pip is a package manager for Python that allows you to easily install and manage third-party Python packages. To install pip on Linux Mint, follow these steps:
Open the terminal by pressing CTRL + ALT + T.
