PyCharm AppImage 2022.2

PyCharm

PyCharm AppImage. The Python IDE for Professional Developers. PyCharm is designed by programmers, for programmers, to provide all the tools you need for productive Python development.

AppImage is a community-based format to distribute applications to various mainstream Linux distributions without the need for a centralized store. One app = one file! This list contains tools to work with AppImages, such as to create AppImages for applications and to integrate AppImages into the system easily. As the vibrant community around AppImage is growing, so is this list.

Contents

AppImage discovery

App catalogs

  • AppImage.GitHub.io - Catalog of AppImages that passed an automated test, links to upstream download pages.
  • Get AppImage - Collection of all AppImages in one website. Great search functionality.

App stores

  • AppImageHub.com - Downloadable AppImages, powered by Opendesktop.org.
  • pling.com - Open store where creators can publish their libre products and creative content including AppImages.
  • App Outlet - Universal app store that works with AppImages, Flatpaks and Snaps.
  • Linux App Store - Universal app store for Linux applications in AppImage, Flatpak, and Snap formats (project abandoned).

Sandboxes

Package managers

Note: The AppImage format is explicitly designed not to need any package managers or similar tools. Everything can be done in the file manager (and an optional daemon for system integration).

  • appimage-manager - Command-line tool for managing AppImages allowing to search, install, remove and update applications.
  • bauh - Graphical user interface for managing Linux applications supporting AppImage, Arch (repositories/AUR), Flatpak, Snap and native Web applications.
  • homebrew-appimage - Linuxbrew AppImage Formulae.
  • AIPM - A Package Manager for AppImages.
  • Zap - AppImage package manager. Downloads the AppImage if it does not exist. If it already exists, updates it with AppImageUpdate. Integrates AppImage into the system.
  • RookiePM - Package manager for AppImages and Shell Scripts.
  • AppMan - AppImage Manager that works like APT or Pacman.
  • jewelrystore - Command line AppImage store made in ruby.
  • ayy - Package manager for AppImage. Single, static, dependency free binary. Written in Go.

Linux distributions

Although the AppImage format was carefully designed not to need any special support from Linux distributions, there are some that offer varying degrees of AppImage friendliness out of the box.

  • Deepin - When you double-click an AppImage or any other executable file that lacks execute permissions, a user-friendly dialog explains the situation and asks for your permission to set the execute permission and execute the executable.
  • Nitrux - Promotes the use of AppImage as the main format for getting applications, has a built in app center featuring AppImages.
  • Linux Mint - Has an AppImage thumbnailer to show application icons on AppImage files.
  • Zenwalk GNU Linux - Is "AppImage ready" and distributes some applications in AppImage format.
