Installing
Install from Source
The generic way is to install it as Python package using PIP. First install Borg using the package of your distribution or via PyPI. The latter needs some additional source packages. Then install Vorta from PyPI. Your local Python version should be >= 3.6.
$ pip3 install vorta
Desktop Tray Icon
Unless Vorta is started with the --foreground option, it will minimize to the system tray without opening a settings window. Be sure your desktop environment supports tray icons by e.g. installing this Gnome extension.
Distribution Packages
If available, prefer distribution-specific packages, as they offer better integration. (If you added Vorta to a Linux distribution, open an issue or PR and it will be added here.)
Apple macOS
Install via Homebrew Cask or download a pre-built app bundle for macOS (10.13+) from Releases.
$ brew cask install vorta
Arch Linux
Use the AUR package maintained by @bjo81.
$ yaourt -S vorta
