# Proton Drive client is (finally) coming to Linux

**[omg\! ubuntu\!](https://daily.dev/sources/omgub)** · 2 min read · 2 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Proton has confirmed it is actively developing an official Proton Drive desktop client for Linux, built from the ground up using a new shared SDK. The SDK unifies the codebase across Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and web, enabling faster feature delivery and the long-awaited Linux support. The new SDK also brings significant performance improvements: uploads up to 3x faster, downloads up to 2x faster, and file encryption up to 4x faster. No release date or beta timeline has been announced yet. The SDK itself is MIT-licensed and available on GitHub, covering TypeScript and C# with Kotlin and Swift bindings.
