Build instructions for linux

[johannesjo]

I am one of the main developers of the open source app super productivity. Since this is – very broadly speaking – in similar category (productivity & knowledge organization) I was super curious to check this out. Since I am working form Linux I am curious if there are any build instructions available for the platform.

@johannesjo , you can check this link https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/appflowy/blob/main/doc/BUILD_ON_LINUX.md

np, I believe @appflowy will publish Linux version soon.

Hey guys, this is awesome, congrats about the great product and tech stack used !
A quick question... wondering if Brew is used only to install Rust? asking this because I wouldn't like to install that just for AppFlowy's sake (I got already multiple package managers and want to be minimal on that front)
Have a great one!

I think so. But I didn’t try. I am going to remove brew steps in instruction.

@thxv3n0lvl The part where brew is installed can be just replaced by the official install of rustup, which @pdckxd will do at some point

BUILD_ON_LINUX.md is updated. brew dep was removed. See: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/appflowy/blob/main/doc/BUILD_ON_LINUX.md

Hi, I just tried the Linux install instructions
At the last step(6: Run the app), I get this error message:

[ERROR:flutter/lib/ui/ui_dart_state.cc(209)] Unhandled Exception: Invalid argument(s): Failed to load dynamic library 'libdart_ffi.so': /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by /opt/appflowy/AppFlowy/lib/libdart_ffi.so)

I think it might be because I don't have rust and flutter installed.
Could you please confirm if that's the case and may I suggest adding these steps in the install instructions?
Thank you, looking forward to trying Flowy!

Distro?

Can you do ldd --version? You need at least glibc 2.32.

I think it might be because I don't have rust and flutter installed.

You don't need it, they're pre-compiled binaries.

Indeed, I'm on ldd (Ubuntu GLIBC 2.31-0ubuntu9.2) 2.31
I tried to install glibc 2.32 following a forum chat, I guess I still need to show Flowy where glibc-2.32 is?

an AMD64 linux version would be greatly appreciated
