From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Arch Linux users, help needed! (lemmy.ml)

Im a MEAN Stack developer and require the following:-

MongoDB (with MongoDB Compass)
Express
Angular
NodeJS

I need those for my web development job and projects.

I have experience with Ubuntu and Fedora based distros and wanted to use Arch Linux because i like the way Hyprland looked. Just tell me how to install mongodb, the rest can be done with npm.

Are you looking for this?

And sorry but... RTFM ;)

And when you're ready, I suggest trizen for AUR management

EDIT: yeah, you can use npm, rpm, deb, snap, etc. But from my experience using the packages and package manager from the distro you're using breaks less often. Only python packages in a venv I'd consider an exception.
And in case of Arch, if you really can't wait a few days for the newest version of a thing, that's what AUR *-git packages are for

might wanna switch over to yay

[–] INeedMana@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

That might be a good idea, true. I haven't payed attention to its updates. But then, I also haven't had any issues with trizen last few years

First time I hear of trizen. How does it compare to yay or paru?

[–] INeedMana@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

No idea, sorry. I've switched to trizen when lack of development on pacmatic became an issue, few years ago

[–] MrOzwaldMan@lemmy.ml 2 points 10 months ago

yep, im gonna try using paru or yay when i install arch tomorrow.
