# apt
> Package management utility for Debian based distributions.
> Recommended replacement for `apt-get` when used interactively in Ubuntu versions 16.04 and later.
> For equivalent commands in other package managers, see <https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman/Rosetta>.
> More information: <https://manpages.debian.org/latest/apt/apt.8.html>.
- Update the list of available packages and versions (it's recommended to run this before other `apt` commands):
`sudo apt update`
- Search for a given package:
`apt search {{package}}`
- Show information for a package:
`apt show {{package}}`
- Install a package, or update it to the latest available version:
`sudo apt install {{package}}`
- Remove a package (using `purge` instead also removes its configuration files):
`sudo apt remove {{package}}`
- Upgrade all installed packages to their newest available versions:
`sudo apt upgrade`
- List all packages:
`apt list`
- List installed packages:
`apt list --installed`
