Why isn't there a Linux version?

@jingle0927 we were trying to limit the scope initially. We didn't know what we were doing, but it seems like adding a linux version do not add too much additional work, once we complete, we will be sure to add it. Just that no one really had time lately to work this. 😞

The app can be built easily using the package.json scripts (npm run dist, npm run build, etc)

Sorry for bumping a sorta old issue, but is there any update on this?

there is a more simple app https://github.com/eriknyk/youtb it is not made by hand it is only a desktop wrapper for the original youtube web sources and works fine on linux, it already has the .tar.gz package of the app in the download section. Regards.
