Google Hangouts Chat Desktop

An unofficial desktop clent for Google Hangouts Chat built with Electron.

Installing

This client is for Linux only as there is already an official client for MacOS and Windows.

Download the latest RPM from the Releases page.

Install:

$ rpm -i hangouts-chat-1.0.1.x86_64.rpm

There is an AppImage available on the Releases page. This should work for most other distributions of Linux.

Once downloaded you will need to make the file executable:

$ chmod u+x hangouts-chat-desktop.1.0.1.AppImage

After that you can run it by simply double-clicking on the file. Simples!
