Budibase is an open-source application development platform that enables developers to build web applications at a faster pace without necessarily writing code. Installing Budibase on POP! OS is pretty straightforward, and this tutorial will take you through the steps to accomplish that.
To install Budibase, you need to have Node.js and npm installed on your POP! OS system. Run the following command to install Node.js and npm:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nodejs npm
Follow the steps outlined below to install Budibase on your POP! OS system:
Open the terminal window and run the following command to install the Budibase CLI:
npm install -g @budibase/cli
Once the installation is complete, create a directory where you would like to store your project files. Navigate to that directory in the terminal window and run the following command to initialize a new Budibase project:
budibase init
This command initializes a new Budibase project in your current directory.
After running the initialization command, you will be prompted to provide some information about your new project. Follow the prompts and provide the required information.
Once the initialization process is complete, navigate into the project folder by running the following command:
cd my-budibase-project
Finally, start the Budibase development server by running the following command:
budibase start
Once the server starts, you can access your Budibase project by navigating to http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.
You have now successfully installed Budibase on your POP! OS system. You can start building web applications with Budibase by following the documentation available on their website.
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!
