GitHub Desktop for Linux?
Updating this issue with response from @billygriffin from the GitHub Desktop team (updated early 2021): We have no immediate plans to support an official Linux version, but we continue to evaluate it alongside our other priorities and we know it's important to many people out there. I also know "maybe someday" is a disappointing response and I apologize for that. We're enormously grateful that @shiftkey has built a fork (https://github.com/shiftkey/desktop) and that many people are using that successfully, but @shiftkey is only one person and I hope people will understand that he's not always able to keep it entirely up to date with the official version. I assure you that if/when we're able to commit to supporting a Linux version, we'll update this issue accordingly, and I appreciate your ask for a more "official" answer. I'd also ask that others please refrain from responding to this issue with "when though?", "I want this too", or similar responses. Thanks! --- Original issue content: Please make Github Desktop available for linux user 😃 **Update** : There is a fork with prebuilt Linux binaries by @shiftkey here https://github.com/shiftkey/desktop
