Rip for Linux.

Pick your distro, paste three lines. Repositories serve x86_64 and aarch64, and update with the rest of your system.

Install with apt
apt picks x86_64 or aarch64
01
Add the signing key
$ sudo install -d -m 755 /etc/apt/keyrings && curl -fsSL https://downloads.ripeditor.com/rip-signing-key.asc | sudo tee /etc/apt/keyrings/rip.asc >/dev/null
02
Add the repository
$ echo 'deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/rip.asc] https://downloads.ripeditor.com/apt/stable/ /' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/rip.list
03
Install
$ sudo apt update && sudo apt install rip-editor
Run gpg --show-keys --with-fingerprint /etc/apt/keyrings/rip.asc first. It must print CD3E14B44AE07D376E158E8E5A7BFBC6FA4D2C03.
Install with dnf
dnf picks x86_64 or aarch64
01
Import the signing key
$ sudo rpm --import https://downloads.ripeditor.com/rip-signing-key.asc
02
Add the repository
$ curl -fsSL https://downloads.ripeditor.com/rpm/stable/$(uname -m)/rip.repo | sudo tee /etc/yum.repos.d/rip.repo >/dev/null
03
Install
$ sudo dnf install rip-editor
We test on Fedora 43. Any dnf distribution works if it ships glibc 2.39 or newer: RHEL 10 qualifies, RHEL 9 does not.
Install with pacman
pacman picks x86_64 or aarch64
01
Trust the signing key
$ curl -fsSL https://downloads.ripeditor.com/rip-signing-key.asc -o rip-signing-key.asc && sudo pacman-key --add rip-signing-key.asc && sudo pacman-key --lsign-key CD3E14B44AE07D376E158E8E5A7BFBC6FA4D2C03
02
Add the repository
$ printf '\n[rip]\nSigLevel = Required\nServer = https://downloads.ripeditor.com/arch/stable/$arch\n' | sudo tee -a /etc/pacman.conf
03
Install
$ sudo pacman -Syu rip-editor
Run gpg --show-keys --with-fingerprint rip-signing-key.asc first. It must print the fingerprint above. Pacman expands $arch for you, so paste that line unchanged.
Tarball, no package manager

Optional: put it on your PATH
$ sudo install -m 755 rip /usr/local/bin/rip
The archive holds one binary and nothing else. Delete it to uninstall. Tarball installs never update themselves.

Or just grab the file.

Signed packages for v0.3. View all hashes in the release manifest.

.debDebian, Ubuntu
.rpmFedora, RHEL 10
.tar.gzAny distro
Needs
glibc 2.39 or newer. Ubuntu 24.04, Debian 13, Fedora 43 and current Arch all qualify.
Display
Wayland or X11, and an integrated or discrete GPU with working Vulkan drivers. Rip draws every frame on the GPU.
Updates
Install through a package manager and Rip updates along with your system. Install from a tarball and Rip updates itself in the app.
