appimagepool VS bauh

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.

Like bauh which supports AppImage, Arch packages (including AUR), Debian packages, Flatpak, Snap and native Web applications

If you really want a GUI package manager that doesn't break EndeavourOS, I've had a good experience with bauh when I started using EOS. But I also do everything with yay now, as others have suggested, it is more convenient once you know the commands.

Lastly, deb-get + pacstall + bauh. All of these combined covers 99% of my software needs, much less need to find and install PPAs and .deb manually. Still not as convenient as AUR, but much better than it was before. Hopefully, eventually everything is on Flatpak, snap, or AppImage so I could just use Bauh for most apps, but for now, I'm glad that these tools exists.

Is it an AppImage? Did you make it executable? If you use a lot of AppImages then you may want to add DE integration via their utility. I do not use it, as it runs a backgroudn daemon, I prefer using bauh instead.

Bauh https://github.com/vinifmor/bauh

You can use bauh. Supports AppImage, Arch packages (including AUR), Debian packages, Flatpak, Snap and native Web applications. GitHub

You may wanna take a look at bauh.

Although, if I had to I would personally suggest bauh if you want a graphical package manager. I haven't had any issues with using it, and neither have I seen people complaining about it. It also supports the following formats: AUR packages, AppImages, Flatpak, Snap and Web applications. It also integrates with Timeshift to provide a simple and safe backup process before applying changes to your system.
