How to install SQLite 3 in Ubuntu

SQLite is a C language package that includes a free and lightweight Relational Database Management System (RDMS). A “client-server” database engine is another name for it. Almost all programming languages have SQLite support built-in, and it may be integrated using the “.sqlite3/.sqlite/.DB” extension. SQLite is also largely used for client-side or local storage.
