Most GNU/Linux distributions come with PHP available from the official repositories, but those packages usually are a little behind the current stable version. There are multiple ways to get newer PHP versions on such distributions. On Ubuntu and Debian-based GNU/Linux distributions, for instance, the best alternatives for native packages are provided and maintened by [Ondřej Surý][Ondrej Sury Blog], through his Personal Package Archive (PPA) on Ubuntu and DPA/bikeshed on Debian. Find instructions for each of these below. All that said, you can always use containers, compile the PHP Source code, etc.

### RPM-based distributions
On RPM-based distributions (CentOS, Fedora, RHEL, etc.) you can use the [Remi's RPM repository][remi-repo] to install the latest PHP version or to have multiple PHP versions simultaneously available.
There is a [configuration wizard][remi-wizard] available to configure your RPM-based distribution.
All that said, you can always use containers or compile the PHP source code from scratch.
