foco's Issues

interface error on KDE (Linux)

it seems that the app got some errors in KDE. No menus are shown when I click the icon from menu.
I can click that empty space and when I click that, the app show in top right corner. Actually, it should show the app on bottom right corner because my menu are at the bottom, not on top.

(I am running KDE Plasma 5)

Here is the screenshot

Write tests and setup continuous integration on travis/appveyor

Auto-launch on start up

Add auto-update support

.deb 1.3.0 for linux

Please, could make .deb for the last version (1.3.0) for linux

Reduce app size

Instead of packaging all the sounds in app we could link it externally and load it via src.
Something like this -

<audio>
<source src="http://xyz.com/cafe.mp3" type="audio/mpeg">
</audio>

Only downside of this is we'll loose offline support after adding this😭 .

Windows/linux installers

Improve UI

Add new sounds

Please provide an AppImage for download on GitHub Releases

"AppImage"

Providing an AppImage would have, among others, these advantages:

• Applications packaged as an AppImage can run on many distributions (including Ubuntu, Fedora, openSUSE, CentOS, elementaryOS, Linux Mint, and others)
• One app = one file = super simple for users: just download one AppImage file, make it executable, and run
• No unpacking or installation necessary
• No root needed
• No system libraries changed
• Works out of the box, no installation of runtimes needed
• Optional desktop integration with appimaged
• Optional binary delta updates, e.g., for continuous builds (only download the binary diff) using AppImageUpdate
• Can optionally GPG2-sign your AppImages (inside the file)
• Works on Live ISOs
• Can use the same AppImages when dual-booting multiple distributions
• Can be listed in the AppImageHub central directory of available AppImages
• Can double as a self-extracting compressed archive with the --appimage-extract parameter

Here is an overview of projects that are already distributing upstream-provided, official AppImages.

If you have questions, AppImage developers are on #AppImage on irc.freenode.net.

The click event is ignored on linux
