ProtonMail Desktop is an unofficial app that emulates a native client for the ProtonMail e-mail service. Check out more about Protonmail in their website.

This is an experiment from a main PHP coder, code may be bad and ugly. Most part of the initial core was modified from sindresorhus/caprine repo.
