Increase Eclipse Theia presence via the Ubuntu Store or PPA. At least people get to easily install Eclipse Theia and try it out.

I find this pretty interesting, we also got requests about Debian. @kevintanhongann Do you have experience publishing something to Ubuntu store?

kevintanhongann commented 3 days ago

@JonasHelming unfortunately no. Is there also way to package the app into a .deb package? I think that is the easiest way for people to install Theia on Ubuntu and straight away have the app icon available in the start menu.

We will do an investigation of this feature request
