    Contributing

    If you want to add a new package to the project, follow these steps:

    1. Fork the project
    2. Clone your fork
    git clone https://github.com/[YOUR_USER]/app-get up-app-get
    1. Edit the lib/apps.list file
    vim up-app-get/lib/apps.list
    1. This file has data separated by spaces per line. And each field has a certain information:
    command name category version Architecture AppImage link website icon/.desktop automatic
    application command name (usually with capital letters) Category based on .desktop Program version 64 or 32 AppImage link, use only the official project link, preferably from a Git repository Inform the official website of the program If when you run AppImage for the first time and it opens a box asking if you want to create the .desktop and the icon automatically, check true, but after testing it on your machine, it does not generate and is not automatically available from Dash your system, check false

    Example for the FooBar program:

    foobar FooBar Utility;Graphics 1.0 64 https://github.com/foobar/FooBar.AppImage https://foobar.net false

    Add only those that you have tested on your machine.
