Appimage

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

    Project mention: GoboLinux | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-28

    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

    Project mention: Two reasons because Arch-based AppImages are not a good idea | /r/archlinux | 2023-05-05

    The 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 ).

  • vidcutter

    Project mention: FFmpeg is getting better with multithreaded transcoding pipelines | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-06

  • go-appimage

    Project mention: Flatpak Is Not the Future | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-08-21

    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
