Chirpy is a web development tool that runs on Node.js. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install Chirpy on OpenSUSE.
Open a terminal and ensure that you have Node.js installed on your system by running the following command:
node -v
If Node.js is already installed, you should see the version number. If not, install Node.js by running:
sudo zypper install nodejs
Install npm by running:
sudo zypper install npm
Install Chirpy by running:
sudo npm install -g chirpy
Verify that you have installed Chirpy correctly by running:
chirpy -v

To use Chirpy, navigate to your project folder and run:
chirpy serve
This will start a local web server and open your project in the browser.
In this tutorial, we have gone through the steps to install Chirpy on OpenSUSE. Now that you have installed Chirpy, you can use it to develop and manage your web projects.
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!
