This is a quick tutorial shows how to easily install the Light Table IDE in 64-bit Ubuntu via PPA, since there’s no official .deb binary for Ubuntu Linux.<\/b><\/p>\n

Light Table is a cross-platform and open-source IDE that features real-time feedback allowing instant execution, debugging and access to documentation.<\/p>\n

\"LightTable<\/a><\/p>\n

To make it easy to install Light Table IDE in Ubuntu, there’s now a PPA that contains an installer script<\/u>, which automatically downloads the official Linux package from its website<\/a>, installs and creates a launcher shortcut in your system for better Ubuntu integration.<\/p>\n

1.<\/b> First download the script from the link below:<\/p>\n

Light Table Installer (.deb)<\/a><\/p>\n

Select download the package “lighttable-installer_xxx_amd64.deb”, the click install via Ubuntu Software.<\/p>\n

Or open terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and run command install the downloaded package. The script starts automatically after installation:<\/p>\n

sudo dpkg -i ~\/Downloads\/lighttable-installer_*.deb<\/pre>\n
\"light-table-installer\"<\/a><\/p>\n
If everything goes OK, you’ll be finally able to launch the IDE from Unity Dash, or other Application Launcher.<\/p>\n
2.<\/b> (Optional) To receive future updates of Light Table along with other system udpates, you may add the PPA repository<\/a> so to get updates via Software Updater<\/b> once a new release is made into PPA.<\/p>\n
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:dr-akulavich\/lighttable<\/pre>\n
You can then disable, remove, or edit the PPA via System Settings -> System -> Software & Updates -> Other Software.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
