Linux backend? #25

Hello, is it possible to run the backend on linux?

Sharrnah commented 3 days ago

Hello. Most likely yes if all windows specific wheels are replaced with Linux variants. And as far as i know, there are Linux versions for all.

The only thing that won't work is the windows specific part to do image capturing for OCR. Which has a dummy class for non-windows versions already (In case i do a build in the future).

I don't have a ready linux installation where i can test it currently, so i did not make any Linux build yet.

Also the UI will need some additional Code for the execution code (like calling the nvidia-smi tool and starting the python part).
