Dashing is a Sinatra based framework that allows you to build beautiful real-time dashboards. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install Dashing on Void Linux.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
Dashing requires some dependencies to run smoothly on your system. To install these dependencies, run the following command:
xbps-install -S ruby ruby-dev nodejs
Once all the dependencies are installed, you can proceed to install Dashing on your system.
Run the following command in your terminal to install Dashing:
gem install dashing
This command will install the Dashing gem and all its required dependencies.
Now that Dashing is installed, we can create a new Dashing project. To create a project, run the following command:
dashing new dashboard
This command will create a new Dashing project with the name "dashboard".
To run the Dashing server on your system, go to the project directory and run the following command:
cd dashboard
dashing start
This command will start the Dashing server on your system at http://localhost:3030/.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Dashing on Void Linux. Now you can create and design beautiful real-time dashboards.
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!
