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 . 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 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!
