About

pkgforge-apps is a sub-organization of PkgForge. It builds lightweight native desktop apps: original ones, and alternatives to heavyweight apps, Electron apps in particular.

Every app here is a single Rust binary drawn with egui or smudge. It starts in a blink, stays small in memory, and runs the same on Linux, macOS and Windows.

Getting an app

Each release ships:

Platform File
Linux, portable <app>-<arch>-linux.onelf, one file that runs on any distribution
Linux, AppImage <app>-anylinux-<arch>.AppImage, from apps that also ship one
Linux <app>-<arch>-linux.tar.xz
macOS <app>-<arch>-macos.dmg
Windows <app>-x86_64-windows.exe, nothing to install

The portable Linux builds are onelf bundles. They also install through soar. Some apps also ship an Anylinux AppImage, for AppImage managers, which updates itself.

Contributing

Every repository starts from app-template and follows the shared guidelines: the same layout, checks, release pipeline and conventions everywhere.
