Install module “Devel” on Drupal 8

I´m trying to install de Devel module of Drupal 8, I was reading the README.txt of Project/modules of Drupal, I have read this: 

Placing downloaded and custom modules in this directory separates downloaded and
custom modules from Drupal core's modules. This allows Drupal core to be updated
without overwriting these files.

I have downloaded from the official website Drupal - Devel the 8.x-1.x-dev version, to Drupal 8, and when I paste the module (after descompressed) in Project/modules, I have cleared the cache and Updates the "Extends" menu, but I can´t find my "Devel" module.

Do I need to install and configuring the FTP server?

shouldn't be a cache problem. for me works even without cache clean, just placing devel folder under modules - pavlovich
What's the exact path to your devel module folder ? And is there a file named devel.info.yml inside ? - Allan Mermod

Maybe you could try with /admin/modules/install and let Drupal put it where it should be placed.
