Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, Springseed is an open-source note application enables the users to easily manage notes, via a pretty and intuitive graphical user interface. Also worth mentioning, it allows the users to sync the notes via Dropbox and has drag and drop support.
The latest version available is Springseed 2.0, which has been recently released, coming with a new dark sidebar with large typography, a word count feature in the edit mode, code improvements and bug-fixes.
In this article I will show you how to install Springseed 2.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr, Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Linux Mint 16 Petra, Linux Mint 17 Qiana, Linux Mint 16 Petra, Pinguy OS 14.04, LXLE 14.04, Elementary OS 0.3 Freya and other Ubuntu 14.04 and Ubuntu 13.10 derivative systems.
Because it is not available via any repository or PPA, we have to download the deb package from the official site and install it by hand. I prefer gdebi over dpkg, due to the fact that it also handles dependencies. Follow the instructions for your system and architecture exactly, in order to get a successful installation.
