In this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to install Nullboard on Windows 11. Nullboard is a light-weight, web-based dashboard for monitoring servers and networks, built with simplicity in mind.
If Git is not already installed on your machine, you can download and install it from the following link: https://git-scm.com/downloads
Once Git is installed, you can clone the Nullboard repository by opening a command line interface and running the following command:
git clone https://github.com/apankrat/nullboard.git
This will create a new directory called "nullboard" containing the Nullboard code.
Nullboard is built on top of Node.js, which needs to be installed before we can run it. You can download and install Node.js from the following link: https://nodejs.org/en/download/
Navigate to the "nullboard" directory using your command line interface, and run the following command to install Nullboard's dependencies:
npm install
This will install all required packages and modules.
To configure Nullboard, you need to create a JSON configuration file. You can do this by creating a copy of the example configuration file:
cp example-config.json config.json
Then, edit the "config.json" file and modify it to suit your needs.
To start Nullboard, navigate to the "nullboard" directory and run the following command:
npm start
This will start the Nullboard server and make it accessible from your browser at http://localhost:3000.
In this tutorial, we showed you how to install Nullboard on Windows 11, clone the repository, install Node.js, install dependencies, and configure and start Nullboard. You can now use Nullboard to monitor your servers and networks, and customize it to your needs.
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!
