Installing the IDE: Linux

When the file download has finished, go to the folder to which the file was downloaded, which is typically

~/Downloads

and uncompress the file by typing:

tar xf arduino-ide_2.0.0-rc3_Linux_64bit.tar.xz

(or whatever filename you downloaded.) This will take a few seconds during which nothing is displayed. When it finishes you will find a new folder:

arduino-ide_2.0.0-rc3_Linux_64bit

Move this folder to wherever you would like, e.g. your home folder, by typing:

mv arduino-ide_2.0.0-rc3_Linux_64bit ~
