Is GitHub Desktop available on Ubuntu?

rated 0 times [ 3] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 5176 / 2 Years ago, mon, may 23, 2022, 3:43:55

I tried the recently launched GitHub for Windows App. Its pretty cool.

I just wanted to try it on Ubuntu too. Even if it cant do most things its fine, I just want to try it out.

But I'm unable to install the app using Wine. It opens the Wine Browser, and then nothing happens. :(

Has anyone done it? Or can anyone tell me how to do use GitHub Desktop in Ubuntu?

you could just download the installer and see if it works.

but you can also install the command line version of git, so you are not restricted to github, and since you can paste the url into terminal, there isnt a real problem.

But whatever floats your boat m8.

I will try to install it now for you, give me 5 minutes

edit:

Doesnt seem to be working, he opens it in a bowser or something.

No it doesnt work.
