How to Install Jetbrains Gogland Go IDE on Ubuntu

In the previous article we installed LiteIDE on Ubuntu, Today I am going to explain how to install Jetbrains Gogland GO IDE on Ubuntu. Like LiteIDE, Gogland also created specifically for Go Programming language.

  1. First, download the Gogland Linux installer from the Jetbrains website.

  2. Extract the downloaded tar file to the /opt directory:

    sudo tar -zxvf goland-2017.3.2.tar.gz -C /opt
  3. Next, cd into the bin directory of the installation folder and execute the goland.sh file.

    cd /opt/GoLand-2017.3.2/bin
    ./goland.sh

The command will launch the graphical installer of the Gogland Editor.
