Seems to be targetting Linux veterans and warriors because no binaries are offered for download from their GitHub repo. You'll have to build from source without any instructions.

IMO those Linux vets and warriors who are capable of building from source will, very likely, NOT be interested in running any software from the Winblow$ world on their Linux machines. So it's unclear whom this software is targetting.
