Fedora is a Linux distribution and upstream project for highly stable Redhat Enterprise Linux. It is meant to offer particularly up-to-date programs and multiple desktop environments. In this tutorial, we learn the command to install Google chrome on any currently available version of Fedora.
Well, this Linux only comes with free software. However, we can add third-party repo or enable Fedora’s supplement repository to install propriety applications such as Google Chrome.

1. Enable the Google Chrome repository
