How to Install Microsoft OneNote in Linux

OneNote is a Windows-based tool designed by Microsoft, and it offers various features and efficient workings to the user. It has a web version and a desktop version. It is an efficient tool to collect drawings, audio, notes, and screen clips. Microsoft does not offer OneNote’s official version for Linux. Still, several open-source tools can work as an alternative to OneNote for Linux, such as SimpleNote, Zim, Joplin, Google Keep, etc. However, users don’t like to use these alternatives instead of OneNote, so it becomes difficult for those who switched from Windows to Linux.
