How to Install Para on Arch Linux

Para is a blockchain for decentralized applications. Here's how you can install Para on your Linux operating system.

Step 1: Install Dependencies

Before we begin, we need to make sure that all required dependencies are installed. Type the following command to install essential dependencies:

sudo pacman -S git nodejs npm

Once the dependencies are installed, it's time to clone the repository. Open up the terminal and run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/para-dev/para.git

This will clone the Para repository to your local machine.

Now that the repository is cloned, navigate to the cloned folder:

cd para

Next, install the required dependencies by running the following command:

npm install

This will install all necessary packages required by Para.

To start the blockchain, run the following command:

npm run start-dev

This will start the blockchain and the Para blockchain explorer.

You have now successfully installed Para on your Arch Linux machine.

Note: To shut down the blockchain, press Ctrl + C in the terminal.

Congratulations! You can now start building decentralized applications on the Para blockchain.
