How to install phpstorm and IntelliJ with the package manager on Ubuntu 16.04

Question

But since wget links are forbidden now, this dont work. Anyone have an update on this?

But this is not with the package manager. Is it still possible to do this?

I don't think that Netbeans offers PPA for their programs and I also don't see any PPA for phpstorm and IntelliJ, you need to download and upgrade these applications manually. — Ege Sucu, Mar 4, 2017 at 20:07
Yea, I dowloaded the tar.gz files and installed them like such instead. — mrfr, Mar 4, 2017 at 21:50

What worked quite nice for me (Ubuntu 16.04 and PhpStorm 2017.3.2) was installing PhpStorm as a Snap package:

sudo snap install phpstorm --classic

as mentioned on PhpStorm's official download page.

Some more useful info about Snaps, you can find here.
