First, make sure your Debian package index is up-to-date:

  • sudo apt update

Now pick how much of ROS you would like to install.

  • Desktop-Full Install: (Recommended) : Everything in Desktop plus 2D/3D simulators and 2D/3D perception packages

    • sudo apt install ros-noetic-desktop-full

      or click here

    Desktop Install: Everything in ROS-Base plus tools like rqt and rviz

    ROS-Base: (Bare Bones) ROS packaging, build, and communication libraries. No GUI tools.

    • sudo apt install ros-noetic-ros-base

      or click here

There are even more packages available in ROS. You can always install a specific package directly.

  • sudo apt install ros-noetic-PACKAGE
    e.g.
    sudo apt install ros-noetic-slam-gmapping

To find available packages, see ROS Index or use:

apt search ros-noetic
