Installing Ganache on ubuntu
  • Ubuntu, open a browser and navigate to https://github.com/trufflesuite/ganache/releases
  • Download the latest Linux release which will be the *.AppImage file.For example ganache-1.3.0-x86_64.AppImage.
  • Once the download is complete, open a new terminal and change into the directory with the *.AppImage file.
  • Use chmod to make the file executable: chmod a+x ganache-1.3.0-x86_64.AppImage
  • You will be prompted if you want to integrate the application into your system. For convenience, click Yes. This will allow you to launch Ganache later from Ubuntu Application menu
  • Ganache will launch and prompt if you want to enable Google Analytics tracking to help the developers improve the software. Toggle this off if you wish, then click Continue.

@aakashchoudhary5815 AppImages require FUSE version 2 to run so this link would be helpful https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/FUSE
