Unofficial AppImage of polybar: https://github.com/polybar/polybar
This AppImage bundles everything and should work on any linux distro, even on musl based ones.
Works like the regular polybar, by default running the appimage does the same as running the regular polybar binary.
If you want to use the polybar-msg binary, then you would need to pass the arg msg to the appimage, for example:
polybar-msg cmd restart would be nameofappimage msg cmd restart instead.
You can also symlink the appimage to PATH with the name polybar-msg and that way it automatically detects and launches polybar-msg without extra arguments.
It is possible that this appimage may fail to work with appimagelauncher, I recommend this alternative instead: https://github.com/ivan-hc/AM
This appimage works without fuse2 as it can use fuse3 instead.
