DragonFly is an open-source app for macOS that allows users to mount remote shares and browse them directly from the Finder. In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of installing DragonFly on Manjaro.
The first step in installing DragonFly is to install the necessary dependencies. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:
sudo pacman -S git fuse2
Next, you will need to clone the DragonFly repository from GitHub. To do this, open your terminal and enter the following command:
git clone https://github.com/corecode/dma.git
This will create a new directory called dma in your current working directory.
Now that you have cloned the DragonFly repository, you can install it on your system. Navigate to the dma directory by running the following command:
cd dma
Once you are inside the dma directory, run the following command to install DragonFly:
sudo make install
This will compile and install DragonFly on your system.
Now that you have successfully installed DragonFly on your Manjaro system, you can start using it to mount remote shares and browse them directly from the Finder. To learn how to use DragonFly, you can refer to the official documentation on the DragonFly GitHub page.
Congratulations! You have now successfully installed DragonFly on your Manjaro system.
