Development in Linux (Ubuntu 22.04)

Hi @vti,
In Ubuntu the standard Node package is very old (~12.2), therefore I had this issue:
These are the steps I needed to follow to be able to build and run the app:
#updating Ubuntu package lists
sudo apt update
#install npm
sudo apt install npm
#install Electron framework
npm install electron --save-dev
#install node globally
sudo npm install -g n
#update node to the latest version
sudo n stable
#installing yarn [is required]
npm install --global yarn
#cloning the source code
git clone https://github.com/vti/elemntary.git
cd elemntary
#creates a compressed build file
npm run make
#to create an executable
npm run package
#execute elemntary
./out/elemntary-linux-x64/elemntary
Include these lines as you like in your README file.
