Go produces statically linked binaries, what would you need an AppImage for?

patryk4815 commented 11 months ago

@kovmir Why use this project then? If you have one static binary xD? @kovmir You still can 'package' non golang binary Or cgo binary. Or any C/C++/python/rust binary.

kovmir commented 11 months ago

I am not sure I understand your previous message.

I am not saying it is impossible to make an AppImage, I am asking what you would need it for. You can run a go binary just like you would run an AppImage with all the dependencies bundled in.

patryk4815 commented 11 months ago

@kovmir Im bundling C++/python binaries. This project is not only for golang.
