Installing Wekan on Windows 10

This tutorial will guide you through the installation process of Wekan on Windows 10. Wekan is an open-source Kanban board application.

Prerequisites

Before installing Wekan, you need to have the following software installed on your system:

Open the command prompt or PowerShell with administrator privileges.
Clone the Wekan repository to your local machine using the following command:
```
git clone https://github.com/wekan/wekan.git
```
Navigate to the cloned repository by running the following command:
```
cd wekan
```
In the Wekan directory, execute the following command to install the required packages:
```
npm install
```
After the installation completes, run the following command to build the Wekan application:
```
npm run build
```
Once the build is complete, run the following command to start the Wekan server:
```
npm start
```
Open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080, where you should see the Wekan login page.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Wekan on your Windows 10 system.

You can use MongoDB with Wekan as a database backend. To do this, you need to have MongoDB installed and running on your system. You can configure the MongoDB connection string in the settings.json file located in the wekan directory.
You can create a Windows service for the Wekan server to run it in the background. To do this, you can use a tool like NSSM.

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!
