python-appimage 1.4.5

Appimage releases of Python

AppImage distributions of Python

Ready to use AppImages of Python are available as GitHub releases.

Quickstart

We provide relocatable Python runtimes in the form of AppImages for Linux systems. These runtimes are extracted from Manylinux Docker images and are available as GitHub releases. Our Python AppImages are updated weekly, on every Sunday.

Instructions for installing and running Python AppImages can be found on Read the Docs.

The online documentation also describes the python-appimage utility for application developers. This utility can facilitate the development of Python applications, provided you have an existing Python AppImage and a recipe folder. Examples of recipes are available on GitHub.
