Rallly is a web-based application that makes it easy to plan events and coordinate with friends, family or colleagues. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Rallly on Void Linux, which is a lightweight Linux distribution that focuses on performance and simplicity.
Before we begin, make sure that you have the following prerequisites:
Rallly is built using Node.js, so we need to install it first. Open a terminal and run the following command to install Node.js:
xbps-install nodejs
This command will install Node.js and npm, the Node.js package manager.
Now, let's download and extract the Rallly application. Run the following command to download the latest release of Rallly:
wget https://github.com/lukevella/Rallly/releases/latest/download/rallly.zip
This command will download the latest release of Rallly as a ZIP archive. Next, we need to extract the archive. Run the following command to extract the ZIP archive:
unzip rallly.zip
This command will extract the contents of the ZIP archive to a new directory named rallly.
Rallly requires some dependencies to function properly. Run the following command to install the required dependencies:
cd rallly
npm install
This command will install all the required dependencies for Rallly.
Finally, we can launch Rallly and start using it. Run the following command to start Rallly:
