Thumbnailer for AppImages

This project contains a thumbnailer for AppImages, compatible with GNOME and KDE based DEs.

For now the code is still in draft and has not been thoroughly tested yet.

Building

Clone this repository. Remember to clone submodules as well for dependencies (libappimage):

git clone --recursive https://github.com/mttbernardini/appimage-thumbnailer

A Makefile is provided to run the build process in a isolated Docker container:

make help

Roadmap

• Write thumbnailer in C/C++ to make it usable by both GNOME and KDE, using libappimage
• Set up build system and dependencies
• Set up distro packaging under the name of appimage-thumbnailer
