How To Install Hyper Terminal on Debian 12

In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Hyper Terminal on Debian 12. In the realm of Linux, a terminal emulator is the gateway to the heart of your operating system, enabling you to wield powerful commands and take control of your system like a true wizard. While Ubuntu, one of the most beloved Linux distributions, comes with its default terminal, many users prefer the enhanced features and sleek aesthetics of alternative terminal emulators. Among these, Hyper Terminal stands tall as a popular choice.

This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the Hyper Terminal on a Debian 12 (Bookworm).

Prerequisites

• A server running one of the following operating systems: Debian 12 (Bookworm).
• It’s recommended that you use a fresh OS install to prevent any potential issues.
• SSH access to the server (or just open Terminal if you’re on a desktop).
• An active internet connection. You’ll need an internet connection to download the necessary packages and dependencies for Hyper Terminal.
• A non-root sudo user or access to the root user. We recommend acting as a non-root sudo user, however, as you can harm your system if you’re not careful when acting as the root.
