Problem

I love version in Macos but I use both Linux and Macos, so could we have a new version support Ubuntu?

That's not how it works, SwiftUI does not exist for Linux. Being operating system specific is what "native" usually means.

@harrytran998 soon 👀

I seem to stand corrected 👀

[datlechin]

@fuzzy76 Haha 😄 The Linux app currently in development is written in Rust and uses libadwaita for UI blocks. It's very fast and has a native GNOME look and feel 😁

[fuzzy76]

So it's a completely separate app :)

@datlechin What about using Zed GPUI for UI rendering using rust?

[datlechin]

@daniele-solutiontech The Linux port backend is in Rust too. For the UI I went with GTK4 + libadwaita, the goal is to stay truly native on Linux (same philosophy as AppKit/SwiftUI on macOS). GPUI is cool but it's more of a custom-rendered toolkit, doesn't give that native feel.
