Calypso is a lightweight and user-friendly file manager tool for Unix-like systems. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Calypso on Ubuntu Server.
Before starting, ensure that you have the following:
First, run the update command to ensure your system is up-to-date.
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
Calypso is built in Python, so we need to have Python installed.
sudo apt install python3
sudo apt install python3-pip
Run the following command to install Calypso:
sudo pip3 install calypso
You can now start Calypso by running the following command:
calypso
This will open a web interface on port 8000. Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8000 to access Calypso.
Note: You can access the interface from any other machine that can access the server's IP address.
That's it! You have successfully installed Calypso on Ubuntu Server. You can now use it to manage your files and directories efficiently.
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!
