In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing EteSync Web on POP! OS Latest. EteSync Web is a secure, end-to-end encrypted web client for EteSync, which is a privacy-focused encrypted data synchronization service. By installing EteSync Web, you can access your EteSync account through your web browser, without having to install any additional software.
Before we begin, please make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Open your web browser and go to the following website:
https://www.etesync.com/faq/#web-client
On the page, locate the "Download latest release for your platform" section and click the "Linux" button. This will download the latest release of EteSync Web for Linux.
EteSync Web requires Node.js and NPM to be installed on your system. If you already have these installed, you can skip this step.
To install Node.js and NPM, open a terminal window and run the following commands:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nodejs npm
Once the download is complete, navigate to the directory where the archive was downloaded. You can do this by opening your file manager and navigating to the "Downloads" folder.
Find the etesync-web-linux-x64.tar.gz archive and extract its contents to a location of your choice. You can do this by right-clicking on the archive file and selecting "Extract Here".
Alternatively, you can use the following command in the terminal:
tar -zxvf etesync-web-linux-x64.tar.gz
To launch EteSync Web, navigate to the directory where you extracted the archive, and double-click on the "start" script. This will launch EteSync Web in your default web browser.
Alternatively, you can launch EteSync Web by running the following command in the terminal:
cd etesync-web-linux-x64
./start
Once EteSync Web has launched, you will be prompted to log in to your EteSync account. Enter your email address and password, and click the "Log In" button.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and launched EteSync Web on your POP! OS Latest system. You can now access your EteSync account securely through your web browser.
