Any plans of supporting other systems? Linux perhaps?

I plan to release a cross-platform CLI tool first. The core tool already works under *nix. But there's still a good portion of business logic in the app.

The work on a cross-platform GUI is happening too, but it is way slower than I anticipated. It's going to be native or nothing. I don't consider Electron or QT as an option.

Electron I understand, but what's wrong with Qt?

Qt does not use native widgets only simulates them.

I am aware, however you didn't explain what the problem is.

Well, the problem is the uncanny valley between native and its imitation.
