Please Note

This is the download page for the development version of GIMP.

That means these builds are a work-in-progress. Proceed with caution because they may be unstable. If a crash does occur, please report it!

If you're looking for the stable GIMP 3.0.4 release instead, you can find it on our downloads page.

Flatpak additional instructions

If the link above doesn't open your software installer, install with following command:

flatpak install --user https://flathub.org/beta-repo/appstream/org.gimp.GIMP.flatpakref

After installation, if GIMP is not shown as other applications (on menus, desktop overview, etc), run it with following command line:

flatpak run org.gimp.GIMP//beta

This installation will also provide regular auto update. Once again, if your distribution does not have proper support, you can always fall back to using the following command line:

flatpak update

Note: If you installed both the stable and beta repositories, the desktop (menus, etc.) will see only one version at a time. To make sure your desktop sees the development version, run this command:

flatpak make-current --user org.gimp.GIMP beta

Or respectively to restore the stable version as the visible GIMP application:

flatpak make-current --user org.gimp.GIMP stable

You may also create shortcuts running specifically one of the other version.

For instructions on how to build GIMP from source code, you will want to read our developer website.

Automatic Development Builds

Automatic builds (sometimes called "nightlies") are generated at regular intervals by our Continuous Integration process. This allows to run the last version of our code, though be aware that it also means ⚠️ you would be running very experimental and not tested code! ⚠️
These builds are meant to test future GIMP versions and help us debug, we do not advise to use these for production.
