Metabase is an open-source business intelligence and analytics tool that enables users to easily visualize and explore data. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to install Metabase on macOS.
Before installing Metabase, make sure you have the following:
Download the latest version of Metabase by visiting the official website https://www.metabase.com/start/ and clicking on the "Download Metabase" button.
Extract the downloaded file by double-clicking on it.
Open Terminal, which can be found in the Launchpad or the Utilities folder.
Type the following command to navigate to the extracted Metabase directory:
cd /path/to/metabase
Replace /path/to/metabase with the actual path to the Metabase directory.
Type the following command to start the Metabase server:
java -jar metabase.jar
Once the server has started, open your web browser and go to http://localhost:3000.
You will be prompted to set up your Metabase account. Follow the prompts to create your account.
You will then be directed to the Metabase dashboard, where you can start exploring your data.
With these easy steps, you have successfully installed Metabase on your macOS. You are now ready to use Metabase for data analysis and visualization.
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!
