How to Install todoMini on NetBSD

todoMini is a simple task management app for macOS and iOS. However, it is not available for NetBSD in the form of an installer. In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to manually install todoMini on NetBSD.

Prerequisites

Before starting, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:

• NetBSD installation with root access
• Downloaded todoMini binaries from https://www.todomini.app/

Installation Steps

1. Create a new directory /usr/local/todomini/:

   mkdir /usr/local/todomini/
   

2. Move the downloaded todoMini binary file to the directory that we just created:

   mv ~/Downloads/todoMini /usr/local/todomini/
   

3. In the terminal, navigate to the directory where we moved the todoMini binary:

   cd /usr/local/todomini/
   

4. Mark todoMini as executable:

   chmod +x todoMini
   

5. Create a symbolic link todoMini in /usr/local/bin/ to use todoMini from anywhere:

   ln -s /usr/local/todomini/todoMini /usr/local/bin/todoMini
   

   Note: This step requires root privileges.

6. You can now run todoMini by typing todoMini in the terminal:

   todoMini
   

   Alternatively, you can open todoMini from the GUI by double-clicking on the todoMini binary file in /usr/local/todomini/.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed todoMini on NetBSD. Use the todoMini command in the terminal or double-click on /usr/local/todomini/todoMini to open the app in the GUI.

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!
