Install the Latest Version of Software on Ubuntu

Things on this page are fragmentary and immature notes/thoughts of the author. Please read with your own judgement!

Using PPA

Using snap

The snap version of a software is usually more up-to-date than the version installed using apt-get. For example, NevoVim (installed using apt-get) on Ubuntu 20.04 is 0.4.1 which is seriously outdated. You can install the latest version of NeoVim using the following command.

sudo snap install nvim --classic
