Choosing Linux Mint LMDE edition probably means you're interested in more than the desktop environment and applications. Being active as a web applications developer, my intention is to turn my workstation into a fully fledged development platform, this means I have to setup a few things to make it suit my needs. | Choosing Linux Mint LMDE edition probably means you're interested in more than the desktop environment and applications.

+ | First of all I needed my favorite IDE installed. As of this writing, it is the only commercial application that resides on my system. Fortunately JetBrains offers a Linux version. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== JetBrains PhpStorm IDE ===== | ||
+ | First you need to **download the tar.gz archive** from Jetbrains web site: [[http://www.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/download/|download it here...]] | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Install Application to /opt ==== | ||
+ | You probably don't want this application to resides in your ~/Dowloads folder, cause that's probably not the best place to keep it. So we'll move it to the /opt directory, where it belongs. | ||
+ | |||
+ | So **move the archive** using: | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | sudo mv /home/<username>/Downloads/PhpStorm-* /opt/ | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Then **extract the archive**. Supposing it is now in the /opt directory, you need to execute the commands as superuser: | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | sudo cd /opt | ||
+ | sudo tar xvfz PhpStorm-*.tar.gz | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | Then **run the install shell script**: | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | sudo ./PhpStorm-*/bin/phpstorm.sh | ||
+ | </code> | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Create a Shortcut in the Application Menu === | ||
+ | You could use our [[tricks:application-shortcut|Create an Application Shortcut trick]] to create an application shortcut in the menu using: | ||
+ | {{ :applications:devtools:launcher_properties-phpstorm.png?direct&200 |}} | ||
+ | Althouh PhpStorm permits to do just that using the "Configure > Create Desktop Entry" menu. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Cleanup Before You Leave === | ||
+ | The tar.gz archives still resides in the /opt directory, we can get rid of it now: | ||
+ | <code> | ||
+ | sudo rm /opt/PhpStorm-*.tar.gz | ||
+ | </code> |
