Xojo To Linux AppImage Software

Hello Everyone I have made and open sourced a new tool that hopefully will help some of you have a Linux version of your software :slight_smile:. This tool, once pointed at a compiled Xojo project directory will package and output a Linux AppImage!

What is an AppImage? (https://appimage.org/)

  • A highly portable program kind of like a exe file on Windows but it runs the application vs installing it
  • it also contains all of the dependencies located inside the lib and resources folders so there is no moving around a bunch of items, your Linux software is now an all-in-one package!
  • It doesn’t require a repo or package manager, you can sell it as a download on a website or share it another way quite easily

You can get the project and code here:

Please give it a try and if you like it consider tossing me a donation or hey a copy of your software. I would be happy to test it out :slight_smile: I also plan to make a Patreon website with AppImages of all my software if you don’t want to use source code and just want a nice AppImage. Thank you for taking a look and let me know if you find any issues!
