Installing applications and their dependencies

Put your apps in /srv/

Do not just install stuff in /home/ dirs.

Rather git clone the repos to your home and then move it to /srv/ partition.

sudo mv your_repo /srv/your_repo

This way other users of the system can also access and use your app without letting them into your $HOME.

Installing NodeJS

Install NVM

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.40.3/install.sh | bash

Restart the shell session (or exit / reconnect to ssh) to use nvm.

Install and set the latest LTS (long term support) NodeJS.

nvm install --lts

Installing Rust

# Install required packages
# openssl-devel is optional, but you will need it for web stuff such as Axum server
sudo dnf install curl epel-release cmake gcc make openssl-devel -y
# Install Rustup
curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Restart the shell session (or exit / reconnect to ssh) to use Rust.
