AppImage
AppImages allow a simple executable like experience on Linux, but the problem is that AppImages require glibc and alpine uses musl.
Installation
First you need FUSE for AppImages to work and modprobe it.
# apk add fuse # modprobe fuse
Optional but recommended install gcompat for glibc compatibility.
# apk add gcompat
Usage
You have to make the AppImage executable, so you can execute it.
Example
$ chmod +x Example.AppImage $ ./Example.AppImage
