Hi,

A little question for the devs of CoMaps. Is a build for Linux (.appimage) is planned ? 🙏

Thanks.

Why appimage and not a flatpak? I would like one too

[–] bobo1900@sopuli.xyz 4 points 7 months ago

Because flatpak is wasteful on storage space.

Also organicmaps is already available on flathub, so it should be rather trivial to distribute comaps as well, an appimage would be a nicd addition.

In contrast to Flatpak and Snap, the AppImage package itself is the final executable program.
This means there’s no installation needed... and it simpler..
