    I remember we used https://github.com/getlantern/systray at some point along with some interaction with fyne.io. That said, I do not remember how we managed the lifetime but we did…

    Congratulations on the launch! I am interested to know the choice of runtime (in this case - TypeScript) for the implementation of the integrations. What are some reasons that a sy…
