How to install conda in Ubuntu

Install Miniconda (lightweight Conda)

1. Download the Miniconda installer:

wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

2. Run the installer:

bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

⚠️ Follow the prompts — accept the license, choose install location, and allow it to initialize Conda (recommended).

3. Restart your shell (or run this now to enable conda):

source ~/.bashrc

4. Check where Miniconda is installed

By default, it installs to your home directory, under:

~/miniconda3

Verify it exists:

ls ~/miniconda3

If you see folders like bin, etc, envs, then it’s installed correctly.

5. Manually add Conda to your PATH

Run this command:

export PATH="$HOME/miniconda3/bin:$PATH"

Then test:

conda --version

If it works, proceed to initialize Conda:

conda init

6. Make the PATH change permanent

To make the PATH available every time you open a terminal, add it to your .bashrc or .zshrc:

echo 'export PATH="$HOME/miniconda3/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
