How to Install Revolt on FreeBSD Latest

In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Revolt on a FreeBSD Latest server.

Step 1: Update FreeBSD

Before we install Revolt, we need to update FreeBSD to ensure that we have the latest packages and dependencies. To do this, we will use the following command:

sudo pkg update && sudo pkg upgrade

This command will update all the installed packages on your FreeBSD server.

Step 2: Install Node.js and npm

Revolt is built using Node.js, so we need to install it first. We will use the following command to install Node.js and npm:

sudo pkg install node14 npm

This command will install Node.js version 14 and npm package manager on your FreeBSD server.

Step 3: Install Revolt

Now that we have Node.js and npm installed, we can proceed with installing Revolt. We will use the following commands to install Revolt:

sudo npm install -g [email protected]
sudo npm install -g yarn
sudo npm install -g libscrypt
sudo git clone https://github.com/revoltchat/revolt.git
cd revolt
yarn install
yarn build

These commands will clone the Revolt repository, install the required dependencies, and build the application.

Step 4: Start Revolt

We have now installed Revolt on our FreeBSD server. To start Revolt, we will use the following command:

yarn start

This will start the Revolt server, and you will see output similar to the following:

> [email protected] start
> node build/index.js
