I recently updated my Ubuntu to 16.04. I need to install Kate editor but it doesn't appear in the Ubuntu Software. Is there any way to install Kate Editor in Ubuntu 16.04?

Try opening a terminal window (Alt+Ctrl+T) and typing the following commands:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install kate
Please let me know if this was helpful or if you run into any problems.

It is part of Universe so should be available on an updated system that has universe enabled.
So ...
- Do you have this disabled perhaps? (You can add it with
sudo add-apt-repository universe
). - Did you install Ubuntu 16.04 and not update the system yet? (
sudo apt update
to update it).
And ...
sudo apt install kate
should install it.
I installed the appimage version because I found the ubuntu version is different (e.g. doesn't have the regex search functionality).
The way I did that: see this Q/A on stackoverflow.
