Introduction

YunoHost is a server operating system that makes it easy to host your own services such as mail, cloud, and more. It is based on Debian GNU/Linux and has a large selection of applications that can be easily installed and managed through its web interface. In this tutorial, we will walk through the process of installing YunoHost on Void Linux.

Prerequisites

Step 1: Adding the YunoHost repository to Void Linux

First, we need to add the YunoHost repository to Void Linux. Open a terminal and run the following command:

sudo sh -c 'echo "repository=https://repo.yunohost.org/stable/${XBPS_TARGET_ARCH}/" > /etc/xbps.d/90-yunohost-repo.conf'

This will add the repository to the /etc/xbps.d/ directory.

Step 2: Installing YunoHost packages

Now that the repository has been added, we can install YunoHost packages. Run the following command:

sudo xbps-install yunohost

This will download and install all the necessary packages required for YunoHost to function properly.

Step 3: Configuring YunoHost

After the packages are installed, we need to configure YunoHost. Run the following command:

sudo yunohost tools postinstall

This will open the YunoHost post-installation wizard. Follow the wizard steps to configure your YunoHost installation.

Once the wizard is complete, you can access the YunoHost web interface by opening your web browser and navigating to https://your-server-ip. You should see the YunoHost login page.

Step 4: Adding domains and services

Now that YunoHost is installed and configured, you can add domains and services.

To add a domain, navigate to the YunoHost web interface and click on "Domains" in the left-hand menu. Click the "Add domain" button and follow the wizard steps to add your domain.

To add a service, navigate to the YunoHost web interface and click on "Applications" in the left-hand menu. Click the "Install" button next to the service you want to install and follow the wizard steps to install the service.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed YunoHost on your Void Linux server and added domains and services to your YunoHost instance.

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!
