Web app should have a link to download the desktop app

Open haadcode opened this issue 7 years ago • 9 comments

In the web app, there should be a visible link to download the desktop app.

This could be a banner at the top of the screen and if so, the user should be able to dismiss (hide) the banner.

When clicked, a link to the distributions web site will be opened in a new tab.

@vaibhavchellani when I was looking into it I was using the documentation here https://github.com/orbitdb/orbit-electron. Has a nice walk through of how to set it up locally. I believe it is running on Linux and OS X currently.

As we don't have the binary distribution packages yet, I would say we should point to the Electron version Github @vaibhavchellani. What do you think?

@haadcode we can do that , is anyone working on creating the binary distribution packages?
