Top 8 Shell Updater Projects

  1. AM

    AppImage Package Manager: AppImage sandboxing, local and system installation, update all AppImages, an extensible database of AppImages and portable apps, lists for AppImages and other GNU/Linux binaries, integrate AppImages by drag/drop or install unlisted AppImages, conversion of old AppImage types... and more! Manage AppImages like never before!

    Project mention: I had 27 AppImages and none of them showed up in my launcher | dev.to | 2026-03-26

    Gear Lever is nice but requires Flatpak. AM/AppMan is a full package manager. I didn't need any of that.
