Seems lika a cool project.
If you continue working on it, could you add a Linux build or at least build instruction for Linux?
Good luck with project!

Since Electron supports both .deb and .rpm packaging, accommodating this will be a cinch! When the app is ready for release I will make sure to include both types of Linux packages.

Thank you for taking the time to let me know that there are users out there who would want a Linux package!

Nice! Thank you! It also support platform independent packaging (unpackaged binary and loose files/libs), AppImage and Snaps!! Any of these are better then deb/rpm, as they are meant to work on any Linux distribution without much additional work from user, so I'd suggest going for them, instead of deb/rpm.
There are not many of us, but we exist, and are often ignored by Riot and and devs of apps like these, simply because we are so few in numbers. But it's understandable and we usually can hack something to work, but it is so much better to have native support.

Looking forward to project development!
