UPDATE (2022): There are probably better options for this.

Microsoft provides a .deb-based installer on their website, but I often prefer to install things directly via the terminal. (Plus, it makes it scriptable!) Here’s how to install Microsoft Teams on Linux via the terminal.

First, we’re going to add the repo. To do so, add the following line to the end of /etc/apt/sources.list (sudo usually required):

deb https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/ms-teams stable main

Next, we can update our package list and install:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install teams

That’s it!
