QPixel is a web-based pixel art editor that runs in your browser. It is an open source project that can be found on Codidact.com.
In this tutorial, we will be installing QPixel on OpenBSD.
Before you start, make sure you have the following:
QPixel requires Node.js and Git to be installed on your system.
Open the terminal and enter the following command to install Node.js:
pkg_add node
Next, install Git:
pkg_add git
Use Git to clone the QPixel repository to your system:
git clone https://github.com/codidact/qpixel.git
Navigate to the qpixel directory and install the dependencies using npm:
cd qpixel
npm install
Start QPixel by running the following command:
npm start
This command will start the development server and will also launch your browser with the QPixel application.
You can open http://localhost:3000 in any web browser to access QPixel.
Congratulations! QPixel is now installed on your OpenBSD server. You can use it to create and edit pixel art in your browser.
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!
