📄 Description

What is this Python project?

AppImage - Bundles applications into stand-alone executables including the Python runtime, modules, libraries, and resources (Linux)

What's the difference between this Python project and similar ones

Providing an AppImage has, among others, these advantages:

Works for most Linux distributions (including Ubuntu, Fedora, openSUSE, CentOS, elementaryOS, Linux Mint, and others)
One app = one file = super simple for users: just download one AppImage file, make it executable, and run
No unpacking or installation necessary
No root needed
No system libraries changed
Works out of the box, no installation of runtimes needed
Optional desktop integration with appimaged
Optional binary delta updates, e.g., for continuous builds (only download the binary diff) using AppImageUpdate
Can optionally GPG2-sign your AppImages (inside the file)
Works on Live ISOs
Can use the same AppImages when dual-booting multiple distributions

Here is an overview of projects that are already distributing upstream-provided, official AppImages. For example, Ultimaker Cura is a PyQt application distributed in AppImage format for Linux.
