Any distro: Flatpak from Flathub

Flathub lists it as “WebStorm” (com.jetbrains.WebStorm), described as “JavaScript and TypeScript IDE”. The listing is not verified, so JetBrains has not confirmed it as its own package; Flathub shows “JetBrains s.r.o.” as the developer name. It has been installed 151,665 times, number 91 of the 94 apps in our catalog that have a Flathub install count. Flathub does not flag its license as free software, so it may be proprietary.

Linux Mint, Pop!_OS and Zorin OS have Flathub enabled out of the box, Fedora offers it as an optional third-party repository, and on Ubuntu you install Flatpak first.

Which install method should you use for WebStorm?

Use Flatpak: Flathub is the only install method in our data besides the vendor’s download.

  • JetBrains’s own download. JetBrains publishes the Linux version itself on its website.
  • Flatpak from Flathub. It is not a verified listing, so check that you trust its maintainer. No distro repository we track carries this app, so it is the route that works on any distro.
