I&#x27;m confused and couldn&#x27;t find an answer searching for &quot;xdg-app&quot; in AppImage&#x27;s website&#x2F;github. Is this a whole alternative to xdg-app, or a layer on top of it?<p>If it&#x27;s indeed an alternative, why would anyone choose this rather than xdg-app? xdg-app being backed by fedora&#x2F;freedesktop&#x2F;gnome folks might mean more traction and maintenance, doesn&#x27;t it?<p>EDIT: okay, saw <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;probonopd&#x2F;AppImageKit&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Similar-projects" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;probonopd&#x2F;AppImageKit&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Similar-projec...</a> mentioned below by the author, sorry for the noise.
