Before you start installing Status, you must have the following dependencies installed on your system.
To install these dependencies, open up a terminal window and type the following commands:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git python3 nodejs npm
sudo npm install -g yarn
Now, we need to clone the Status repository from GitHub. To do this, run the following command in terminal:
git clone https://github.com/dani3l0/Status.git
After cloning the repository successfully, navigate to the cloned folder and install the Status dependencies using yarn by running the following command:
cd Status
yarn install
Once all the Status dependencies have been installed, you can now start the application by running the following command:
yarn dev
This will start the application and open the Status window.
If you want to build Status for production, you need to run the following command instead of yarn dev
:
yarn build
This will build the Status application files in the dist
folder.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Status on your Linux Mint system. You can now use it to interact with the Ethereum blockchain.
