You need to install some dependencies before installing xBrowserSync. Open your terminal and run the following command:

This command will install the npm and nodejs packages required for xBrowserSync.
Download xBrowserSync from the official website (https://www.xbrowsersync.org/) or using the following command:
curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xBrowserSync/xBrowserSync/master/tools/install-nix.sh | bash
This command will download and install xBrowserSync on your NetBSD machine.
After the download is complete, edit the file config.yaml to configure xBrowserSync according to your preferences. You can also configure the xBrowserSync server settings by editing the file server.yaml.
Once configured, start xBrowserSync by running the following command:

This command will start xBrowserSync, and you will be able to access it in your web browser at http://localhost:port (port being the port number specified in your configuration file).
Congratulations! You have successfully installed xBrowserSync on your NetBSD machine. You can now start synchronizing your bookmarks, history, tabs, and more across multiple devices using xBrowserSync.
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!
