Sublime Text is a proprietary software but it is available to download and use for free. If you are a developer and you are going to use it full time, you can buy its paid version.

There are two build channels are available for Sublime Text (Stable and Dev). Builds listed on the dev channel are only available to licensed users.

Install Sublime Text 3 using the official repository to get the auto-upgrade feature. The installation very simple and straightforward.

Add the stable repository:

echo "deb https://download.sublimetext.com/ apt/stable/" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sublime-text.list

sudo apt install sublime-text
