It would be just great to have version for Linux arm(I use Ubuntu server ARM).

Seems to me building for arm will help raspberry pi users also.

so, just to make sure I understand, the use-case here is (essentially)

due to other non-insomnia-related-requirements I use Ubuntu Server for ARM as a daily-driver machine and I would like to be able to use insomnia on this computer

right?

@dimitropoulos how do you think is it possible to make a build for Linux arm?

Insomnia is an Electron app, and Electron apps can be built on ARM (barring some particular incompatible dependency in this specific project that I could be unaware of). I haven't tried it myself, but from what I've read one should be able to get an ARM linux build running through github actions with a combination of Docker Buildx and qemu.

Given that you seem to have the hardware on hand to directly test the results, I'm inclined to suggest this is a good opportunity to clone the repo, get the build going locally, update the GH actions to reproduce the necessary steps in CI, and contribute back to the project and community. :)

@PartyLich I would love to build it on my own machine but I have no luck with this. And I'm not proficient in nodejs development as much as needed to fix errors during build. For some reason it fails in random places

@dimitropoulos yes arm is really needed sooner or later.
Just think of RaspberryPi Desktops/Laptops, Chromebooks or all those nice Linux laptops with arm cpu.

I tried using insomnia-electron-bin, which uses the insomnia source directly against the electron25-bin package on the AUR. (Arch Linux ARM is missing the electron25 package). But it crashes currently:

Does Fedora Asahi have a Electron 25 build you could try this against?
