Yes, it's almost ready.

You can actually download a linux build from: https://download.slapdash.com/

The one thing we have left is fixing auth. We auth in the browser and then open the desktop app to pass the auth tokens to the desktop client. However, this hand off is more difficult to achieve with Linux (can't just open slapdash:// URLs as easily as you can on OS X and windows).

There is a work around hack, where if you can get the auth token from the browser and manually add it to Slapdash.

The steps are: Open Chrome Dev Tool Console right inside the desktop app (F12 or Shift+Ctrl+I) and run something like:

location.hash = "#/lt?token=..."

We will of course build a more person-friendly UX before we make the linux client more widely available.

Isn't this exactly what xdg-open does?

I suppose if you want to support text mode (ie use from mutt without running a gui) - you'd have to use mailcap - but that assumes the login flow works in a text mode browser like w3m...

Thanks for Linux support.

I am no expert, but as far as my experience goes, an app registers a URI scheme with the system, and then it is as easy as 'xdg-open scheme://stuff's life e12e said.
