In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to install ARRCON on your macOS system.

Prerequisites

Before we get started, you'll need to make sure that you have a few things in place:

Installation Steps

  1. Open a terminal window on your macOS system.

  2. Make sure that you have Homebrew installed. If you don't have it, you can install it by running the following command:

    /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
    
  3. Next, clone the ARRCON repository from Github to your Mac. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal:

    git clone https://github.com/radj307/ARRCON.git
    
  4. Once the repository is cloned, navigate into the ARRCON directory by running the following command:

    cd ARRCON
    
  5. Now, we'll install the dependencies required to run ARRCON on macOS. You can do this by running the following commands:

    brew install curl
    brew install node
    brew install yarn
    yarn install
    
  6. Once the dependencies are installed, you can start ARRCON by running the following command:

    yarn start
    
  7. The ARRCON web interface should now open in your browser automatically. If it doesn't, you can navigate to http://localhost:3000/ to open it manually.

Congratulations! You've now successfully installed ARRCON on your macOS system.
