How To Install arduino on Fedora 34
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install arduino on Fedora 34.
What is arduino
Arduino is an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software. It’s intended for artists, designers, hobbyists, and anyone interested in creating interactive objects or environments. This package contains an IDE that can be used to develop and upload code to the micro-controller.
We can use yum or dnf to install arduino on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install arduino.
Install arduino on Fedora 34 Using dnf
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache --refresh
The output should look something like this:
Fedora 34 - x86_64 20 kB/s | 6.6 kB 00:00
Fedora 34 openh264 (From Cisco) - x86_64 1.4 kB/s | 989 B 00:00
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 68 kB/s | 6.5 kB 00:00
Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates 3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB 00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates 17 kB/s | 5.9 kB 00:00
Metadata cache created.
After updating yum database, We can install arduino using dnf by running the following command:
sudo dnf -y install arduino
Install arduino on Fedora 34 Using yum

Metadata cache created.
After updating yum database, We can install arduino using yum by running the following command:
sudo yum -y install arduino
How To Uninstall arduino on Fedora 34
To uninstall only the arduino package we can use the following command:
sudo dnf remove arduino
