Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote-App/issues/425

Originally assigned to: @Rokt33r on GitHub.

Current behavior

There is no icon being shown for the app when you launch it in Ubuntu. Reason being no .desktop file is created for it. You can find more info on it here . I managed to solve it by creating .desktop file on my own but it should be done application.

Expected behavior

Show icon in the launcher and dock.

Steps to reproduce

Happens everytime.

Environment

Boost Note.next version: 0.4.0
OS version and name: Ubuntu 19.10

How did you install the app? from .deb or .AppImage?

The problem is still existing. Maybe electron-builder doesn't support the icns icon file properly when building AppImage. I'll try to build it again with a png icon.

Hey @Rokt33r, could I get some feedback on the PR I sent, #1575? I have tested and it solves the problem for me when I've compiled it in.
