Can you please provide an AppImage, this is basically just a standalone portable executable for linux, that doesn't require installation.
Thanks

There are different ways to create AppImages:

Use Open Build Service (OBS)
Convert existing binary packages (.deb, .rpm, …)
Bundling your Travis CI builds as AppImages
Run linuxdeployqt on your Qt application
Using electron-builder for Electron-based apps
Create an AppDir manually

This is a good idea, hadn't thought of it before. Would be happy to include something in the next release.

Should have the working image with #755, which will be available starting from the next release.
