How to Install PyCharm on Ubuntu 14.04: Step‑by‑Step Guide with Screenshots
Learn to install PyCharm on Ubuntu 14.04 by creating a software folder, downloading the Linux package, transferring it via FileZilla, extracting the archive, and launching the IDE, with detailed screenshots covering each step from installation to activation.
This guide walks you through installing PyCharm on Ubuntu 14.04.
Create a software folder in your home directory to store installation files.
Download the Linux installer for PyCharm (Professional edition) from the official website.
Upload the downloaded .tar.gz file to Ubuntu using FileZilla (see the linked tutorial for installation instructions).
After the transfer finishes, the installer appears in the software folder.
Verify the package exists on Ubuntu.
Extract the archive with the command shown below.
The extraction proceeds quickly.
When finished, a new folder appears.
Enter the extracted folder, then the bin directory to find pycharm.sh .
Run ./pycharm.sh to start PyCharm, choose the second option, and click OK.
The license agreement dialog appears; the "Accept" button is initially disabled.
Scroll down until "Accept" becomes clickable, then click it.
Choose the data‑sharing option "Don’t send" and continue.
On the activation screen, enter a valid activation code (see the linked article for obtaining a code).
If the code is correct, activation succeeds and the guided tour starts.
You can skip the tour by clicking "Skip Remaining and Set Defaults" or continue with "Next".
After the tour, the PyCharm welcome screen appears.
Wait for PyCharm to start, then click "Create New Project" to begin coding.
With these steps completed, PyCharm is fully installed and ready for Python development on Ubuntu 14.04.
