Windows¶
Windows users can download Krita from the website, the Windows Store, or Steam.
The versions on the Store and Steam cost money, but are functionally identical to the(free) website version. Unlike the website version, however, both paid versionsget automatic updates when new versions of Krita comes out. After deduction ofthe Store fee, the purchase cost supports Krita development.
The latest version is always on our website.
The page will try to automatically recommend the correct architecture (64- or 32-bit), but you can select “All Download Versions” to get more choices. To determine your computer architecture manually, go to Settings ‣ About. Your architecture will be listed as the System Type in the Device Specifications section.
Krita by default downloads an installer EXE, but you can also download a portable ZIP file version instead. Unlike the installer version, this portable version does not show previews in Windows Explorer automatically. To get these previews with the portable version, also install Krita’s Windows Shell Extension extension (available on the download page).
These files are also available from the KDE download directory.
For a small fee, you can download Krita from the Windows Store. This version requires Windows 10.
For a small fee, you can also download Krita from Steam.
To download a portable version of Krita go to the KDE download directoryand get the ZIP file instead of the setup.exe installer.
Note
Krita requires Windows 7 or newer. The Store version requires Windows 10.
Linux¶
Many Linux distributions package the latest version of Krita. Sometimesyou will have to enable an extra repository. Krita runs fine under mostdesktop enviroments such as KDE, Gnome, LXDE, Xfce etc. – even though itis a KDE application and needs the KDE libraries. You might also want toinstall the KDE system settings module and tweak the gui theme and fonts used,depending on your distributions.
Nautilus/Nemo file extensions¶
Since April 2016, KDE’s Dolphin file manager shows KRA and ORA thumbnails bydefault, but Nautilus and it’s derivatives need an extension. Werecommend Moritz Molch’s extensions for XCF, KRA, ORA and PSDthumbnails.

Appimages¶
For Krita 3.0 and later, first try out the appimage from the website.90% of the time this is by far the easiest way to get thelatest Krita. Just download the appimage, and then use the fileproperties or the bash command chmod to make the appimage executable.Double click it, and enjoy Krita. (Or run it in the terminal with./appimagename.appimage)
Open the terminal into the folder you have the appimage.
Make it executable:
Run Krita!
Appimages are ISOs with all the necessary libraries bundled inside, that means nofiddling with repositories and dependencies, at the cost of a slight bitmore disk space taken up (And this size would only be bigger if you wereusing Plasma to begin with).
Ubuntu and Kubuntu¶
It does not matter which version of Ubuntu you use, Krita will run justfine. However, by default, only a very old version of Krita isavailable. You should either use the appimage, flatpak or the snap availablefrom Ubuntu’s app store. We also maintain a ppa for getting latest builds of Krita,you can read more about the ppa and install instructions here.

You can also find Krita pkgbuild in arch user repositories but it is not guaranteed to contain the latest git version.
Flatpak¶
We also have Flatpak for nightlies and stable builds, these builds are not maintained by the core developers themselves. You can either get the builds from the KDE community website or from the Flathub Maintainers.
To install flatpak build from the software centre just open the flatpakrepo files with Discover or the software center provided by your distribution:

Snaps¶
There are snap packages provided by the ubuntu snap developers, these are generally not up to date. The Krita Developers do not provide or build the snap packages themselves.To install Krita as a snap package, first install snapd application. Snapd is installed by default on ubuntu distributions.
If you are on ubuntu distribution then Krita’s snap package may show up in the software center or you can run the following command in terminal
Note
The Flatpak and Snap builds are not tested by the core developers of Krita, so you may encounter some bugs while running Krita installed from them.
OS X¶
You can download the latest binary from ourwebsite.The binaries work only with Mac OSX version 10.12 and newer.
Source¶
While it is certainly more difficult to compile Krita from source thanit is to install from prebuilt packages, there are certain advantagesthat might make the effort worth it:
You can follow the development of Krita on the foot. If you compileKrita regularly from the development repository, you will be able toplay with all the new features that the developers are working on.
You can compile it optimized for your processor. Most pre-built packagesare built for the lowest-common denominator.
You will be getting all the bug fixes as soon as possible as well.
You can help the developers by giving us your feedback on features asthey are being developed and you can test bug fixes for us. This ishugely important, which is why our regular testers get their name inthe about box just like developers.
Of course, there are also some disadvantages: when building from the currentdevelopment source repository you also get all the unfinished features.It might mean less stability for a while, or things shown in the userinterface that don’t work. But in practice, there is seldom really badinstability, and if it is, it’s easy for you to go back to a revisionthat does work.
So… If you want to start compiling from source, begin with the latestbuild instructions from the guide here.
If you encounter any problems, or if you are new to compiling software,don’t hesitate to contact the Krita developers. There are three maincommunication channels:
irc: irc.freenode.net, channel #krita
