"AM" is more than just an AppImage Manager: do you have any standalone programs for GNU/Linux? "AM" will distribute and manage it for you!
Today I added new features to a script of my own invention capable of downloading and extracting deb, tar and zip packages (and AppImages as well) from GitHub. I called it "appimage2am".

"AM" / AppMan: Exceeded the limit of 900 applications for x86_64 thanks to appimage.github.io, and I'm not done yet!
Tomorrow I'll cross the line of 1000 applications thanks to script new tool I wrote, named aih2AM, at https://github.com/ivan-hc/aih2AM that can port to installation scripts all the AppImages listed on the main catalogue (if hosted on GitHub). However, I had to jump some AppImages (Emacs didn't works, some AppImages were lised as multiple for the same architecture in the same tag, a great part of the AppImages is abandoned and no more supported, Firefox is already managed by "AM"/AppMan using the original tar archive from the main site, etcetera etcetera...) but I've also tried not to exclude too many projects. I was surprised on how many Wallet applications are listed on AppImage Hub... I can just imagine how many Wallet apps I'll found by exploring the letter "W" tomorrow.

AM - An "AUR-inspired" Database of AppImage packages and a CLI to manage/install/update them system-wide! This repo lists 1900+ standalone apps for GNU/Linux. You can extend it with custom repositories, create your own installation scripts and even build AppImages on the fly! "AM" Application Manager: Easy to use like APT and Powerful like PacMan!
