How To Build And Host a Monero Node from Source

How to Build and Install a Monero Node on a Debian-based System

Hello. In this document, we will walk through the steps of building and hosting your own Monero node from source on a Debian-based Linux system. These systems include Raspbian, Debian (9 and above), and Ubuntu (18.04 and above). This tutorial assumes that you are capable of accessing the ROOT terminal of your Debian-based system, and are capable of getting your system online if necessary. You may plan on using an external storage device to store the blockchain, this tutorial will include the optional steps to support external storage. Alternatively, this setup procedure can also accomodate users looking to host a pruned blockchain with restricted storage space.

Here are some useful links for reaching this prerequisite if you do not currently have access to a Debian-based system that meets the recommended system requirements.
