Peergos is a secure and decentralized platform that allows you to store your data and communicate with others without the involvement of any third-party service provider. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Peergos on Void Linux.
Before getting started with the installation process, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:
Peergos requires the Java Development Kit (JDK) to be installed on your system. To install, type the following command in your terminal:
sudo xbps-install -S openjdk
Next, you need to download Peergos from the official website. You can do this by typing the following command in your terminal:
wget https://github.com/Peergos/Peergos/archive/refs/tags/v1.1.0-alpha.tar.gz
Once the download is complete, extract the archive by running the following command:
tar -xzvf v1.1.0-alpha.tar.gz
Navigate to the extracted directory:
cd Peergos-1.1.0-alpha
Build Peergos using the following command:
./gradlew shadowJar
After building Peergos, start the server using the following command:
java -jar server/build/libs/peergos-server-1.1.0-alpha-all.jar
You can then access Peergos by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:3000.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Peergos on Void Linux. You can now start exploring the platform and its various features.
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!
