In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Espial on Manjaro. Espial is an open-source bookmark manager that allows you to organize your web links in one place.
To install Espial on your Manjaro system, you will need the following prerequisites:
To install Git on your Manjaro system, open the terminal and run the following command:
sudo pacman -S git
Next, we need to clone the Espial repository from Github. To do that, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/jonschoning/espial.git
Before we can install Espial on our system, we need to install some dependencies. To do that, navigate to the Espial directory that we cloned in the previous step and run the following command:
cd espial
sudo pacman -S yarn
yarn install –production=false
The above command should install all the required dependencies for Espial.
To start Espial on our system, run the following command:
yarn start
This command will launch Espial on your default browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Espial on your Manjaro system. Now you can start using it to organize your bookmarks. Please note that Espial is a self-hosted application, which means you will need to have a server to host it on if you want to use it as a web application.
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!
