**Adobe products don’t run natively on Linux. Even with wine there are bugs (check the AppDB page).**

Even though there are alternatives, for the most part Adobe’s programs are much better imo

Here’s how you run Adobe apps, without a license and without bugs on Linux (any distro) -

1. Go to [https://github.com/G…hotoshopCClinux](https://github.com/Gictorbit/photoshopCClinux) for Photoshop  
and [https://github.com/G…ustratorCClinux](https://github.com/Gictorbit/illustratorCClinux) for Illustrator  
(thanks to [Gictorbit](https://github.com/Gictorbit))
2. Download the latest release, extract and run setup.sh as superuser
3. Enjoy! The .desktop app icons files will be added automatically for Gnome/Rofi etc app launchers
4. For other Adobe programs you’ll need to use Wine. Adobe XD will not work since it’s not a “classic” Windows app.

**Happy learning!**
