Top 23 Appimage Open-Source Projects

AppImageKit
Package desktop applications as AppImages that run on common Linux-based operating systems, such as RHEL, CentOS, openSUSE, SLED, Ubuntu, Fedora, debian and derivatives. Join #AppImage on irc.libera.chat
What you're looking for sounds like AppImages (https://appimage.org/) . I have only used them while downloading games from itch.io, etc. (since i prefer package managers) but they seem to work out of the box on popular distros.

linuxdeployqt
Makes Linux applications self-contained by copying in the libraries and plugins that the application uses, and optionally generates an AppImage. Can be used for Qt and other applications
Project mention: Two reasons because Arch-based AppImages are not a good idea | /r/archlinux | 2023-05-05The second reason is the "modularity" of Arch, why Debian packages all the dependences in many different packages? Because a developer can isolate a bug or exclude that package using the right patch. Arch tends to package everything together. That's why an AppImage of Chromium for me is about 140 MB from a Ubuntu base and 280-300 from an Arch-base... but at least this is an issue of both arch-deployer and arch2appimage... I think that by using linuxdeployqt would be better in this case (SPOILER, it requires the host system with an old GLIBC version, also Debian Bookwork is too new for it xD ).

open-build-service
Build and distribute Linux packages from sources in an automatic, consistent and reproducible way #obs
It is basically a solved problem for developers.
https://build.opensuse.org/ will let you target 20+ distros with very little work. You can also run your own local instance if you want https://github.com/openSUSE/open-build-service
-
bauh
Graphical user interface for managing your Linux applications. Supports AppImage, Debian and Arch packages (including AUR), Flatpak, Snap and native Web applications
Project mention: Imade a simple shell script program to manage packages in Linux. Currently it supports apt, flatpak, snap. It can probably be useful for someone. | /r/linux | 2023-06-23Like bauh which supports AppImage, Arch packages (including AUR), Debian packages, Flatpak, Snap and native Web applications

Project mention: If you are on debian you can use this trick to pack any package in deb repository as appimage with its deps! | /r/linux | 2023-05-25
The pkg2appimage script exists to do these conversions with many examples https://github.com/AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage/tree/master/recipes
-
Snap and flatpak run a daemon to integrate into your system. Appimage has an optional daemon to give you the same integration https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage
Handles making it executable, automatic upgrades, no need to move it to your $PATH, and adds the application to your app list.
Only other thing you might want to do is symlink a friendly name for cli

AppImageUpdate
AppImageUpdate lets you update AppImages in a decentral way using information embedded in the AppImage itself.
Project mention: Why the neovim in the mint repo is so old? Im currently using mint 21.2. Is there a newer version available already? Im not able to use the plugins in this old version, and the snap version seems kinda laggy for me | /r/linuxmint | 2023-12-06 -
