MyPaas is a cloud computing platform that makes it easy to deploy and manage web applications. In this tutorial, we will walk through the steps to install MyPaas on Manjaro using the command line.

Prerequisites

Before we start with the installation process, ensure that you have the following prerequisites:

• Manjaro installed and updated with the latest packages.
