In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Joplin on OpenSUSE Latest. Joplin is a free, open-source, and cross-platform note-taking and to-do app that can run on various operating systems. It allows you to create and organize notes and to-do lists, and synchronize them across multiple devices, including Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS.
Before we begin, make sure that:
The first step is to update your system to make sure that it is up-to-date with the latest packages and security patches. Open a terminal and run the following command:
sudo zypper update
Enter your root or sudo password if prompted, and then wait for the update process to complete.
Joplin is built using Node.js, so we need to install Node.js and its package manager (npm) on our system. Run the following command:
sudo zypper install nodejs npm
Once Node.js and npm are installed, verify the installation by running the following commands:
node -v
npm -v
It should display the versions of Node.js and npm installed on your system.
Visit the Joplin website at https://joplinapp.org/ and download the latest version of the Joplin desktop app for Linux. You can also download it using the following command:
wget -O joplin https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases/download/v2.4.4/Joplin-2.4.4.AppImage
Note: Replace "v2.4.4" with the version number you want to install. Check the latest version number on the Joplin website.
Once downloaded, set the execution permission on the Joplin AppImage file using the following command:
chmod +x joplin
To launch Joplin, simply run the following command:
./joplin
Joplin should start and display the main interface. You can now start using Joplin to create and organize notes and to-do lists.
If you want to use Joplin in the terminal, you need to install the Joplin Terminal package. Run the following command:
npm install -g joplin-terminal
Once installed, launch Joplin Terminal by running the following command:
joplin
You can now use Joplin in the terminal.
