Hey, do you know if you could add linux support for this app? I noticed it was an electron app, so it shouldn't be too hard. Thanks!

Although it is an Electron app, it unfortunately relies on some platform-specific APIs and libraries that wouldn't work on Linux. I would like to make a custom implementation of what is needed so SpaceEye could run on popular flavors of Linux (namely Ubuntu), but to support each variant would be very difficult.

That said, it would probably be pretty easy to use the SpaceEye config file to write a simple cron-activated script that downloads a new image every 15 minutes or so and sets it as the background. If you end up writing a gist or something like that, I'd be happy to add a link to it in the SpaceEye README.
