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 does seem to be hard to find at the moment. I found it by clicking on this little icon on the MINDSTORMS "About" page.
The app is distributed through various app stores:
- Microsoft Store (Windows)
- Apple App Store (macOS/iOS)
- Google Play (Android/Cromebook)
- Amazon App Store (Kindle Fire)
There isn't currently any option for Linux, but there is a 3rd party project call Pybricks that is working on supporting the 51515, so keep an eye on that if you use Linux.
According to this review on Rebrickable, the same app you download for the building instructions is the one you use to program it. Did you download an app for instructions?
