Investigate nuts for storing AppImage downloads #79

Nuts is a simple (and smart) application to serve desktop-application releases. It uses GitHub as a backend to store assets, and it can easily be deployed to Heroku as a stateless service.

Nuts provides a backend for the Squirrel.Mac auto-updater. Squirrel.Mac is integrated by default in Electron applications. Nuts also provides a backend for the Squirrel.Windows auto-updater.

See https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/wiki/Publishing-Artifacts for a workflow for automatic uploading from Travis CI.

It even contains an auto-updater for macOS (but apparently not for Linux yet -- could use AppImageUpdate?)
