Jitsi Meet is an open-source video conferencing application that allows you to hold video calls, meetings, webinars, and virtual classes with the ability to share your screen, offer translations, and much more. In this tutorial, we will take a look at how to install Jitsi Meet on Void Linux.
Before we proceed with the installation, you would need to make sure that you have the following:
Firstly, you need to update the package manager on your system. Use the following command to do so:
sudo xbps-install -Syu
After updating the package manager, you can download Jitsi Meet by entering the following command:
sudo xbps-install -S jitsi-meet
It will take some time to download the package, depending on your internet speed.
Once the installation process is complete, you can start the Jitsi Meet with the command below:
sudo systemctl start jitsi-videobridge2
sudo systemctl start jicofo
sudo systemctl start jitsi-meet-web
sudo systemctl start jitsi-meet-prosody
To enable Jitsi Meet on your system, run the following command:
sudo systemctl enable jitsi-videobridge2
sudo systemctl enable jicofo
sudo systemctl enable jitsi-meet-web
sudo systemctl enable jitsi-meet-prosody
To verify the successful installation of Jitsi Meet, you can access your local server by entering the following URL:
https://your_server_IP:4444/
If everything has been installed correctly, you should now be able to access the Jitsi Meet web interface.
That's it! You have now successfully installed Jitsi Meet on your Void Linux. You can now use it for video conferencing, webinars, virtual classes, and much more.
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!
