Wunderlistux
Missing Wunderlist on linux? You don’t need to thanks to Wunderlistux , an Electron-based desktop app.
It doesn’t claim to be anything more than a wrapper around the official Wunderlist web app (which, yes, you could just open in a new browser tab).
Some people like their web apps to be more…App-y. Electron, especially when developers leverage thenative system integration it offers, is a great framework for doing creating desktop apps that act like, well, desktop apps!
Using WunderlistuxYou can download Wunderlistux from Github. Keep in mind that it’s “designed for the elementary OS desktop” rather than Linux distributions in general, so be aware that the app might look out of place on your GNOME, Unity, Cinnamon or MATE desktop, regardless of which theme you’re using.
It’s also not totally straightforward to install.
Elementary OS doesn’t allowyou toinstall software distributedoutside of their bespoke appstore, not without turningto the command-line, which is perhaps why Wunderlistux lacksa traditional app installer and isn’t distributed through aPPA.
Instead, you’ll need to run it from its source folder. This isn’t the major label faff that it sounds: just download, extract and run.
If you want tocreate an application shortcut for Wunderlistux you can. Just createa new blank text file in ~/.local/share/applications and name it wunderlistux.desktop . Finally, open it in Gedit (or any other text editor of choice) and paste the following, being sure to edit the exec and icon paths to match its location on your system.
[Desktop Entry]Name=Wunderlistux
Exec=/path/to/Wunderlistux-linux-x64/Wunderlistux
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Icon=/path/to/Wunderlistux-linux-x64/resources/app/images/wunderlist.png
Is a GUI too new-school for you? You can also use Wunderlist from the command line.
