# AppImage distributions of Python
|
|
|
|
_Ready to use AppImages of Python are available as GitHub [releases][RELEASES]._
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Quickstart
|
|
|
|
We provide relocatable Python runtimes as [AppImages][APPIMAGE] for Linux
|
|
systems. These runtimes are extracted from [Manylinux][MANYLINUX] Docker images,
|
|
and they are available as GitHub [releases][RELEASES]. Our Python AppImages are
|
|
updated weekly, on every Sunday.
|
|
|
|
Instructions for _installing_ and running _Python AppImages_ are provided on
|
|
[Read the Docs][READTHEDOCS].
|
|
|
|
In addition, the online documentation describes the [`python-appimage`][PYPI]
|
|
utility, for application developers. This utility can facilitate the building of
|
|
Python apps, given an existing Python AppImage and a recipe folder.
|
|
[Examples][APPLICATIONS] of recipes are available from GitHub.
|
|
|
|
|
|

The [`python-appimage`][PYPI] package (**A**) is under the GNU GPLv3 license,
|
|
except for files located under `python_appimage/data` which are MIT licensed.
|
|
Thus, the produced Manylinux Python AppImages (**B**) are not GPL'd. They
|
|
contain a CPython distribution that is (mostly) under the [PSF
|
|
license][PSF_LICENSE]. Other parts of **B** (e.g. `AppRun`) are under the MIT
|
|
license.
