Boost-note is not Boostnote. (So it's not 0.14.0)

The former of which does not use AppImage IIRC.

This isn't an issue for me, I performed the following and it opened up:

cd BoostNote.next/
wget https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote.next/releases/download/v0.1.3/boost-note-linux.AppImage
chmod +x boost-note-linux.AppImage
./boost-note-linux.AppImage

Do you have the .AppImage under the ~/ directory, maybe it's a permission issue?

Environment

Ubuntu 19.10 (Xorg)
v 0.1.3

I'm using Ubuntu too. And I couldn't reproduce the problem. Maybe I should try it on Fedora? Hmm... I'll download Fedora and try to reproduce tomorrow. If there is someone else using Fedora, please let us know if you can reproduce this problem or not.

@RatanShreshtha
I googled about the error. I feel it might be caused by your local envs. Can you execute other electron app like VSCode or Atom on your machine?

@RatanShreshtha Did you run VSCode or Atom from the same terminal?
