Jump is an open-source tool that helps you quickly navigate your file system in a terminal window. In this tutorial, we'll walk through the steps to install Jump on Windows 10.
First, install Git on your computer, if you haven't already. You can download Git from the official website, https://git-scm.com/.
Next, install Python 3.x from the official website, https://www.python.org/downloads/.
Once you have installed Git and Python, open Command Prompt or PowerShell.
Type the following command to clone the Jump repository:
git clone https://github.com/daledavies/jump.git
This will download the Jump repository to your computer.
Navigate to the Jump directory using cd
command:
cd jump
Create a virtual environment by running the following command:
python -m venv env
Activate the virtual environment with the following command:
.\env\Scripts\activate
Note: You should see the name of the virtual environment in your command prompt or PowerShell window.
Install the dependencies by running the following command:
pip install -r requirements.txt
Finally, run Jump by typing the following command:
python jump.py
This should open the Jump terminal window, where you can navigate your file system and jump to directories easily.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Jump on Windows 10. Now, you can use this tool to quickly navigate your file system in a terminal window.
