Dim is a command-line tool for manipulating images developed by Dusk Labs. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Dim on Void Linux.
Before starting, make sure that:
To install Dim, we need to first install its dependencies. Run the following command in your terminal to install the required dependencies:
sudo xbps-install -S gcc make libjpeg-turbo-devel libpng-devel giflib-devel
Next, we need to clone Dim from Github. Run the following command in your terminal to clone Dim:
git clone https://github.com/Dusk-Labs/dim.git
After cloning, change to the Dim directory by running the following command:
cd dim
Next, we need to build and install Dim. Run the following command:
sudo make install
This command will build and install Dim on your system. It may take some time to complete the process depending on your system configuration.
To verify that Dim has been installed correctly, run the following command in your terminal:
dim -v
This command will display the version of Dim installed on your system. If you see the version number, then Dim has been installed correctly.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Dim on Void Linux. Now you can use this powerful command-line tool for manipulating images on your Void Linux system.
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!
