How to install TexStudio on Ubuntu 16.04?

When I installed Texmaker then that was all I needed to do. Any dependencies should be automatically installed when you use apt-get. I remember being surprised how much more work I had to do to install it on Windows.


Yes you have to install texlive-full, it is around 3.5 GB. To install it, run the following command in the terminal:

sudo apt install texlive-full

Then you can install texstudio or texmaker.

It is also possible to install it via the Ubuntu Software program, which might be easier for people that are new to Ubuntu.

  1. Open Ubuntu Software
  2. Search TeXstudio
  3. Press install and wait
