To install Fiddler on Ubuntu, use this link Fiddler Everywhere. You will be directed to download the AppImage file. Once the AppImage file is downloaded, the only thing you require is to make it executable by changing its permissions (Right-click on the file and selected properties. On the permissions tab, select Allow executing the file as program). To run the application, right-click on the file and select Run.

goo almost 7 yearsWhat is "fiddler"? It's not a Ubuntu package. Is there a
.deb
available? Does the "fiddler" website mention Linux? -

Forivin about 4 years@George Udosen You should probably update your answer. The version of Fiddler you linked is way outdated (2017). The new way to run Fiddler on Linux is by downloading the AppImage: telerik-fiddler.s3.amazonaws.com/fiddler-latest/… You can then you run
./fiddler.AppImage
instead ofmono fiddler.exe

Gryu almost 4 yearsOld method does not work now, but new fiddler appimage seems much less functional, so let it be.
