Appsmith is an open-source tool that helps developers build internal tools for their web apps. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install Appsmith on MXLinux Latest.
Before we start with the installation process, make sure that:
Appsmith requires Node.js to be installed on the system. We can use the NodeSource repository to install Node.js on MXLinux Latest.
For that, first, we need to install the curl package if it is not already installed using the following command:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install curl
Once the curl package is installed, run the following command to add the NodeSource repository:
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo bash -
Next, install Node.js using the following command:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
Verify that Node.js is installed correctly by running the following command to check the version:
node -v
Now that we have Node.js installed, we can proceed with installing Appsmith.
To install Appsmith, we will use the npm package manager, which comes installed with Node.js. Run the following command to install Appsmith:
sudo npm install -g appsmith
This command installs Appsmith globally on the system.
To start Appsmith, run the following command:
appsmith start
This command will start the Appsmith server and print the URL to access it. You can access the Appsmith dashboard by typing the URL in the browser.
This concludes the tutorial on how to install Appsmith on MXLinux Latest. Now, you can start building internal tools for your web apps using Appsmith.
