Instance setup and dess deployment

By now you should see your instance in “Running state”

Click on the SSH button and connect to your instance.

You should be presented by new window with command line:

Before we do anything else, we should update the system:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

This might take some time, but it will make sure we have latest repository information and the system is up to date.

Next make sure curl is installed, we will use curl to pull the dess installation file:

sudo apt install curl Finally, run the dess installer:

curl -fsSL https://getdess.atsign.com | sudo bash

Once the installer is finished you should be prompted like so:

Dess installed, please move on to the sudo dess-create command.
