r/ClaudeAI on Reddit: Claude Desktop for Debian-based Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Mint, MX Linux, etc.)
December 27, 2024 -

Inspired by k3d3's successful NixOS implementation, I had Claude create a Debian package build script that lets you run Claude Desktop natively on Debian-based Linux distributions.

Key features:

  • Tested on MX Linux

  • Should work on Ubuntu, Linux Mint, and other Debian derivatives

  • Full support for MCP (Model Context Protocol)

  • Working Ctrl+Alt+Space popup

  • System tray integration

  • Proper desktop integration (icons, application menu)

The build script:

  • Checks system compatibility

  • Handles all dependencies automatically

  • Creates a proper Debian package

  • Implements Linux-native keyboard handling

Repository: https://github.com/aaddrick/claude-desktop-debian

To install:

git clone 
cd claude-desktop-debian
sudo ./build-deb.sh
sudo dpkg -i build/electron-app/claude-desktop_0.7.7_amd64.deb

Big thanks to k3d3 for the original work and insights into the application structure!

Note: This is an unofficial build script - please report any issues on GitHub, not to Anthropic.

MCP Setup:

  1. Click on the menu icon in the top left

Step 1

2. Go to File >> Settings

Step 2

3. Follow instructions at https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user

MCP config file will be created at ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

4. Restart Claude Desktop using the tray icon

Step 4

When you restart Claude Desktop, the changes to the MCP config will be picked up. Restart Claude fully each time you adjust claude_desktop_config.json

r/ChatGPTCoding on Reddit: How to Install and Use Claude Code, Maybe the Best AI Coding Tool Right Now?
February 26, 2025 -

Hey everyone,

Since Claude Code has been around for a while now and many of us are already familiar with Claude Sonnet 3.7, I wanted to share a quick step-by-step guide for those who haven’t had time to explore it yet.

This guide sums up everything you need to know about Claude Code, including:

  • How to install and set it up

  • The benefits and when to use it

  • A demo of its capabilities in action

  • Some Claude Code essential commands

I think Claude Code is a better alternative to coding assistants like Cursor and Bolt, especially for developers who want an AI that really understands the entire codebase instead of just suggesting lines.
