Dashboard is an open-source administrative dashboard template created to ease the work of building web applications. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the step-by-step process on how to install Dashboard on Manjaro.
Before proceeding, ensure that you have the following:
Git is a version control software that is used to manage code repositories. We will use Git to clone the Dashboard repository from GitHub. To install Git, open a terminal window and type the following command:
sudo pacman -S git
After installing Git, the next step is to clone the Dashboard repository from GitHub. To do this, type the following command in your terminal window:
git clone https://github.com/phntxx/dashboard.git
This command will download the latest version of the Dashboard repository to your current working directory.
Dashboard requires Node.js to be installed. To install Node.js, run the following command:
sudo pacman -S nodejs npm
After installing Node.js, you need to install the dependencies required by Dashboard. Navigate to the cloned repository by typing the following command:
cd dashboard
Then run the following command to install the dependencies:
npm install
After installing the dependencies, start the Dashboard application by running the following command:
npm start
This command will start the application on port 3000. You can access the Dashboard by opening a web browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed Dashboard on Manjaro. You can now use Dashboard to build web applications with a beautiful administrative dashboard.
