MicroBin is a lightweight clipboard manager for Linux, inspired by Diodon and Flycut. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MicroBin on Manjaro.
Before we start, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Follow the steps below to install MicroBin on your Manjaro machine:
First, let's start by cloning the MicroBin repository. To do this, open up a terminal and execute the following command:
git clone https://github.com/szabodanika/microbin.git
This command will clone the MicroBin repository into a new directory called microbin in your current working directory.
To install MicroBin's dependencies, we need to run the following command in the microbin directory:
sudo ./install_dependencies.sh
This script will install the following dependencies:
After installing the dependencies, we can now build MicroBin. To do this, navigate to the microbin directory and execute the following command:
./build.sh
This command will build MicroBin and create a MicroBin binary file.
After building MicroBin, we can install it by executing the following command in the microbin directory:
sudo ./install.sh
This command will install MicroBin on your system.
Once installed, we can start MicroBin by executing the following command in the terminal:
microbin
This will start MicroBin, and it will run in the background.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install MicroBin on Manjaro. Once installed, MicroBin will automatically save any data copied to the clipboard and allow you to access it later. MicroBin is an excellent addition to any Linux user's toolkit and can save you time and effort when dealing with multiple clipboard items.
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!
