Many Linux apps are only offered in the .appimage format, which is kinda the Linux version of an MS Windows .exe file. Grabbing Appimages can lead to a confusing mess, leaving you not knowing what is on your system or where it is stored or installed.

⚡️Zap is a command line tool for downloading Appimages from GitHub, or from unofficial Appimage repositories. Zap is very helpful for keeping track of your Appimages, & placing a menu entry within your desktop environment.

To install Zap:

1. Grab zap from GitHub & place it in /usr/local/bin to make it accessible to everyone. This can be done running this command ina terminal.

<br>sudo wget https://github.com/srevinsaju/zap/releases/download/continuous/zap-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/zap<br>

2. Next make it executable:

<br>sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/zap<br>

3. Watch this 👉 video to see how zap works.

To list available Appimages:
'zap search'
(then type to filter, case sensitive)

To install an Appimage:
'zap install app_name'

Sample:
'zap install Firefox'

To install from an app's official GitHub page:
'zap install --github --from GitHubUsername/GithubProjectName'
