WBO, or WhiteBophir, is an open-source tool that allows you to convert a PDF document into a whiteboard-like digital document. In this tutorial, we will go through the step-by-step process of installing WBO on MXLinux.
Before we begin, you need to make sure your MXLinux installation is up to date. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Next, we need to install the required dependencies. Open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo apt install git build-essential libcairo2-dev libjpeg62-turbo-dev libpng-dev libtool-bin libgtk-3-dev libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libswscale-dev libavutil-dev libsdl2-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base1.0-dev libgstreamer1.0-dev libxtst-dev
Open the terminal and navigate to the directory where you want to store the WBO files. In this tutorial, we will use the home directory.
cd ~/
Next, we need to clone the WBO repository from GitHub. Run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/lovasoa/whitebophir.git
After cloning the repository, we need to build and install WBO. Navigate to the WBO directory by running the following command:
cd whitebophir
Next, we need to execute the following command:
sudo make install
WBO has been successfully installed on MXLinux. To launch WBO, open the terminal and run the following command:
wbo
WBO will launch, and you can use it to open PDF documents and convert them into whiteboard-like digital documents.
In this tutorial, we went through the process of installing WBO on MXLinux. With WBO, you can convert PDF documents into whiteboard-like digital documents and make annotations, comments, and sketches.
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!
