There are two ways to install Notepad++ on Ubuntu: This guide has been tested on all Ubuntu versions from Ubuntu 18.04 to Ubuntu 22.04. In this article, we’ll show you how to install Notepad++ on Ubuntu.
Fortunately, however, there is a way to use Notepad++ on Linux distributions, as it is available as a snap package for Linux users. If you go to the official website of Notepad++, you will notice that there is no link to download Notepad++ for Linux distributions. It supports various features like syntax highlighting, multi-document view, bracket matching, macro recording, auto-completion, color codes, etc. Notepad++ is an open-source code editor that is much better than the standard Windows text editor. Some of my friends swear on kate ( sudo apt install kate), others love vscodium, some code::blocks, other spyder, others are vim or emacs or spacemacs users.Notepad++ is one of the best text and source code editors developed for the Microsoft Windows platform. There's also really a wealth of other, easy to install-and-use code editors.
scite also uses the same code editor, and is as minimal as notepad++ ( sudo apt install scite). I haven't tried it, but if you run the official installer instead of unpacking the portable version, you'd probably even get file associations in your file manager, so that double clicking source code files can open them in notepad++.Īlso note that while I think it's good to use an editor you're used to, there's very similar editors to notepad++ for Linux that you can trivially install directly: geany even uses the same editor component as notepad++! You can install it using sudo apt install geany geany-plugins-common.
Just install wine ( sudo apt install wine), download the notepad++ portable, unpack it, and run it with wine. Notepad++ isn't that complex, and supported by wine out of the box. Snap can be really useful when you're installing complex software.
