cd rustypaste

Then run the following command to build Rustypaste:

cargo build --release

Step 3 - Install Rustypaste

Once Rustypaste has finished building, you can install it by running the following command:

sudo make install

This will copy the Rustypaste binary to /usr/local/bin, making it globally accessible on your system.
