AppImage distributions of Python

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

Quickstart

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

Instructions for installing and running Python AppImages are provided on Read the Docs.

In addition, the online documentation describes the python-appimage utility, for application developers. This utility can facilitate the building of Python apps, given an existing Python AppImage and a recipe folder. Examples of recipes are available from GitHub.
