Windows Download

A volunteer has kindly stepped up to provide a Windows installer here:

Since I will no longer be able to provide new releases of ghostwriter for Windows personally, please consider helping out our volunteer at issue #367 if you are interested.

Linux Downloads

Ubuntu and Derivatives

Ubuntu Linux users can download the latest version of ghostwriter from the Launchpad PPA using the following commands in a terminal window:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wereturtle/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ghostwriter

You may also visit the wereturtle package archive page directly. For more information on how to add a PPA to your system, please see the Launchpad guide. Note that this version of ghostwriter has been packaged in the PPA solely for the following Ubuntu versions:

  • Bionic (18.04)
  • Eoan (19.10)
  • Focal (20.04)

Note: It is recommended for users of Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial) to use the Flatpak package (detailed below), since QtWebEngine is unavailable on that version of Ubuntu, thus preventing supplying ghostwriter via the PPA.

Fedora

Fedora users can install ghostwriter from (Copr)[https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/] by opening a terminal and entering the following commands:

$ sudo dnf copr enable wereturtle/stable
$ sudo dnf install ghostwriter

Flatpak

ghostwriter is also available as a Flatpak package at Flathub.

Other

The following are links to unofficial packages/repositories for other Linux distros, kindly provided by volunteers. Note that you may have to wait for them to be updated to the latest version of ghostwriter.
