  I got a LEGO Mindstorms 51515, and I have finished building my 1st robot, and now would like to program it. However, I cannot find any companion program to use. Where can I install the companion program? (Also if there is a Linux program that can be used I would like to know).

  [The "App" page](https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/mindstorms/app) does seem to be hard to find at the moment. I found it by clicking on this little icon on [the MINDSTORMS "About" page](https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/mindstorms/about).

  The app is distributed through various app stores:
  
  * [Microsoft Store](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/lego-mindstorms-robot-inventor/9mtq0n7w1d6x?activetab=pivot:overviewtab) (Windows)
  * [Apple App Store](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lego-mindstorms-inventor/id1515448947) (macOS/iOS)

  There isn't currently any option for Linux, but there is a 3rd party project call [Pybricks](https://pybricks.com) that is working on supporting the 51515, so keep an eye on that if you use Linux.
