appimagepool VS SteamDeck-SteamOS-Guides

I think it's safe to install it directly as it stores everything in a single directory. For AppImages there is also AppImagePool + AppImageLauncher (can be installed rootless, useful for better integration of appimages).

It's called AppImage Pool available at GitHub and in the Flathub. It also had a video done on it by TechHut.

The preferred sources for downloading packages in AppImage format via "AM" / AppMan are GitHub and Sourceforge, however, writing installation scripts that are compatible with one or more programs is a difficult task. Just think that many developers add multiple versions of the same product in the same tag (I have to include also commands to find the exact name of the latest version to avoid the download of other packages), or include more complex links that require an equally complex function to obtain the latest version of a program, and this slows down the loading of these programs on the "AM" repository I manage. I have therefore included excellent AppImage package managers such as "Bread" and "Zap" among the downloadable programs, but also "AppimagePool" and "bauh" are available among the graphics applications (not counting a "Pacstall" AppImage versionI made). These tools should compensate the lack of support for certain sources that I have not included in the "AM" repository.

I downloaded the appimage (seemed appropriate). Then marked it as executable.

I've created KDE Vault and made a directory inside it. I use this directory as a $HOME for distrobox. So, only single directory is encrypted. If you care about encryption, there is a way to LUKS-encrypt /home, but it's a hack and should not be done unless you understand what you do. And of course, things may break in the future.
