Installing Teddit

This tutorial shows you how to install Teddit on Ubuntu. We are using the domain “yetanotherteddit.xyz,” though you can use your own domain name or the localhost.

Setting Up the Web Server

With Teddit installed, you need to set up the web server so that it can be accessed from the browser. This section focuses on securing your server using Nginx. With Nginx properly running, you can also easily enable SSL for your webserver. Doing this will ensure that every incoming connection to your Teddit instance is secure: You should now be able to access your Teddit installation on your domain name.

Creating a Reddit API Key for Teddit

You need a Reddit API key for your Teddit instance to access Reddit’s servers. Tip: Teddit can’t download Reddit’s videos for you. Find out how to do it here. Image credit: Unsplash.

To use this with Teddit, you need to run the following command: npm install pm2 -g && pm2 start app.js.
