Sublime Text is a cross-platform code editor that stands out for being lightweight but very modern. It is specially designed to write without distractions, that is to say, its interface and color scheme makes our attention to the code.

Also, Sublime Text’s syntax highlighting system supports a large number of languages (C, C++, HTML, PHP, Ruby, Go, Rust, Java, Python, and many more) which allows us to use it for almost any code.

Sublime Text supports macros, snippets, and auto-completion, among other features, but it also has support for plugins which allows for much more.

Although it is not free, we can install it at no cost and the application does not lose any functionality. So we can use it both in learning environments as in other more professional ones.

Install Sublime Text on Debian 11

There are a few different ways to install Sublime Text on Debian 11. The first is by using the official repository provided by the developers.

So, open a terminal and update Debian 11.

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

After that, download the GPG key from the repository for the system to recognize it as safe.

wget -qO - https://download.sublimetext.com/sublimehq-pub.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
OK

Next, add the Sublime Text repository to the system with the following command

echo "deb https://download.sublimetext.com/ apt/stable/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sublime-text.list
deb https://download.sublimetext.com/ apt/stable

As you can see we are using the stable channel. This is recommended if we don’t want to have any surprises. However, if you are very enthusiastic, you can join the dev channel by adding this repository instead of the stable one.

echo "deb https://download.sublimetext.com/ apt/dev/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sublime-text.list

In any case, the next step is to update APT, the Ubuntu and Debian package manager.

sudo apt update

Now, install Sublime Text by running the following command

sudo apt-get install sublime-text
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  sublime-text
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 5 not upgraded.
Need to get 16.2 MB of archives.
After this operation, 49.1 MB of additional disk space will be used.

Then, you can run it from the main menu without any problem.

Another way to install Sublime Text on Debian 11

Alternatively, you can download a precompiled binary for Linux that works on almost all distributions. To do so, go to the project’s website, and in the download section, choose the 64-bit (x86-64) portable one

Then a package will be downloaded and you will have to unzip it using the file browser.

And finally, run it by double-clicking on the binary file named sublime_text and the application will start.

Deinstall Sublime Text on Debian 11

If you no longer want to use Sublime Text then the best thing to do is to uninstall it.

If you installed Sublime Text using the first method, then uninstall it by running

sudo apt remove sublime-text

And remove the added repository as well

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sublime-text.list

But if you installed the portable, just delete the archive and the folder that was generated after unzipping it.

That’s enough.

Conclusion

Sublime Text is an editor that will help us with writing code in many languages. It has a lot of interesting features and innovations that make it a vital tool for many people. In this post, you learned how to install it on Debian 11.

Install Sublime Text on Ubuntu 20.04

Sublime Text is a cross-platform application which makes it ideal for many developers. On the other hand in Linux, it has great support and even a repository dedicated to Ubuntu.

We can also run Sublime Text by downloading a binary in tarball format but although it is useful it is advisable to install it in the system. This way you can update the application via the update manager.

Once the terminal is opened, add the GPG key to the repository:

wget -qO - https://download.sublimetext.com/sublimehq-pub.gpg | sudo apt-key add -

Output:

Then, it installs some packages needed to add and manage the repository in question.

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
Note, selecting 'apt' instead of 'apt-transport-https'
The following additional packages will be installed:

Need to get 2336 kB of archives.
After this operation, 6144 B disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

Now we can add the Sublime Text repository to the system software sources:

echo "deb https://download.sublimetext.com/ apt/stable/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sublime-text.list

Output:

deb https://download.sublimetext.com/ apt/stable/

The next step is to refresh the APT cache so that the package manager can now read the packages from this new repository.

sudo apt update

With everything ready, we can install Sublime Text 3 by executing this command:

sudo apt install sublime-text
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information… Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
sublime-text
0 upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 459 not upgraded.
Need to get 9835 kB of archives

When the installation is finished, you can run it from the main menu of the distribution.

Remember that Sublime Text has a free license that we can always use but it is recommended to support these projects.

So, enjoy it. If you are a developer starting Sublime Text has the potential to help you a lot.

Sublime Text is well known in the world of web development. It is a powerful text editor that is widely used to develop applications in many languages. However, its main strength is in the web environment where it shows its main strength. On the other hand, it is a fairly lightweight, customizable, and extensible editor. It has everything you need to make coding a faster process like syntax highlighting, multiple selections, and a command palette.

Therefore, many users need to install it on their main Linux distribution. In this case, OpenSUSE 15.2 / 15.1 is one of the safest options to start developing any application.

Install Sublime Text on OpenSUSE 15.2 / 15.1

Sublime Text is an application that is cross-platform. That is to say, not only we will be able to install it in many Linux distributions but also in Windows or macOS. Then it is an application that is available to many people thus strengthening community support. In the same way, Sublime Text has its own repository for OpenSUSE to keep up to date.

So the first step is to open a terminal and add the GPG key for the repository.

:~$ sudo rpm -v --import https://download.sublimetext.com/sublimehq-rpm-pub.gpg

Then, once we have done the previous thing, it is necessary to choose the software channel that we deem to use. There is the Dev version where the latest version in development is hosted. It is new but can be unstable. On the other hand, the Stable channel provides only versions that are considered stable by the development team. It is the most sensible decision, so we will use this one.

:~$ sudo zypper addrepo -g -f https://download.sublimetext.com/rpm/stable/x86_64/sublime-text.repo
Adding repository 'Sublime Text - x86_64 - Stable' .......................................................................................................................................[done]
Repository 'Sublime Text - x86_64 - Stable' successfully added

URI         : https://download.sublimetext.com/rpm/stable/x86_64
Enabled     : Yes                                               
GPG Check   : Yes                                               
Autorefresh : Yes                                               
Priority    : 99 (default priority)                             

Then you can install Sublime Text on OpenSUSE 15.2 / 15.1.

:~$ sudo zypper install sublime-text

Now, you can launch from the main menu.

So, enjoy it. Remember that Sublime Text has a brother who takes care of GIT. So, you can read our post about Sublime Merge.

Sublime Merge a nice GIT client.

And that is it.
