This should be installed as default in all distro. Run it with --install, put appimages in ~/Applications and it’s done, you’ll see all apps in your DE app menu
No one mentioned it yet, but there’s also AppManager.
GearLever works better
AppImageLauncher works as intended.
But, if you are willing to use the terminal, then there’s appman. Appman is a terminal package manager for handling appimages, which also integrates appimages into the system. It can update appimages, as well as install images that are not found on its package database.
I just keep all my AppImages on a favorited folder…
I’ve been perfectly happy with AppImageInstaller. It’s an easy way to generate .desktop files and has a provision for manual AppImage updates. It’s worked without any issues for all (only six) of the AppImages I’ve installed. I hadn’t heard of GearLever but now I’ll give a try.
I just put appimage files in my $PATH. what else does this do?
I believe it also generates menu entries (.desktop files) for them.
GearLever will also perform automatic updates for your AppImages
Is it just me that has problems with it? Certain appimages being broken and shit.
