In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install OS.js on FreeBSD Latest step-by-step.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
The first step is to install the necessary dependencies required for building OS.js. OS.js requires Node.js, Git, and npm (Node Package Manager).
To install the dependencies, run the following command as root or with sudo privileges:
pkg install node git npm
After installing the dependencies, we will clone the latest version of OS.js from its official GitHub repository.
Create a directory where you want to store OS.js, and then clone it:
mkdir osjs
cd osjs
git clone https://github.com/os-js/OS.js.git
Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the OS.js directory:
cd OS.js
Next, install the required dependencies by running the following command:
npm install
This command might take some time, as it will download and install all the required dependencies.
After installing the dependencies, we need to build OS.js. Run the following command:
npm run build
This will build all the required files for the OS.js application.
To run OS.js, run the following command:
npm start
This command will start the OS.js server on port 8000. You can now access OS.js by visiting http://localhost:8000 from your browser.
