  • There's a (working) package in progress of VScodium over at Nonguix, see https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix/-/merge_requests/190 (just needs some style fixes). As noted, electron apps don't have a foreseeable future in upstream Guix due to the nightmare of JS packaging for the standards Guix keeps.

  • xplorer

    Xplorer, a customizable, modern file manager

  • Same problem with VSCodium's AppImage (the error about libz.so.1). And yes, they're both just electron app so the differences haven't mattered yet. Acorn is a project management tool, I also tried Xplorer.

  • SurveyJS
