Zusam is an open-source project management tool that allows users to collaborate and manage their projects efficiently. This tutorial will guide you through the steps needed to install Zusam on your Windows 10 machine.
To install Zusam, you need to have Git installed on your machine. If you haven't installed Git already, you can download it from https://git-scm.com/download/win.
After you have installed Git, open your command prompt and navigate to the directory where you want to clone the Zusam repository. Then, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/zusam/zusam.git
Zusam is built using the Node.js runtime environment. To install the necessary dependencies, navigate to the cloned repository directory and run the following command:
npm install
Zusam uses MongoDB as its database, so you need to have MongoDB installed on your machine. You can download MongoDB from https://www.mongodb.com/try/download/community.
Once you have installed MongoDB, you need to configure it. Create a new directory for the MongoDB data and log files using the following commands:
mkdir C:\data\db
mkdir C:\data\log
Then, navigate to the MongoDB installation folder and run the following command:
mongod --dbpath C:\data\db --logpath C:\data\log\mongo.log --install
Finally, start the MongoDB service using the following command:
net start MongoDB
To start the Zusam server, navigate to the cloned repository directory and execute the following command:
npm start
Once the server has started, you can access the application by visiting http://localhost:3000 in your web browser.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Zusam on your Windows 10 machine.
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!
