https://github.com/AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage/blob/ac4d7b73bd98be7d14644775e9058d09109b2fa5/recipes/Fritzing.yml#L1 It doesn't anymore. I believe nowadays Fritzing developers are building AppImages, but they are behind a paywall (not sure how updates work).

wget -q "http://fritzing.org/download/?donation=0" -O - | grep AMD | head -n 1 | cut -d '"' -f 2

returns nothing, so the script is broken.

It seems like you have to pay at least 8 Euros to download their binaries now. Hence, unless someone provides a download link that is not behind a paywall we cannot include it here. Sorry!

It's still possible to build Fritzing from source for free. I don't think the developers are distributing the build scripts that they use to build AppImage.
