What are AppImages?
AppImages are portable apps which are independent of the distro and package management. No root permissons are required for installing and no files need to be manually extracted from a compressed tarball, just set the executable flag on the AppImage file and run it, either from the command line shell or graphical file browser.Note: Check out AppImageLauncher, which automates the setup and system integration of AppImages. AppImageLauncher may also be available via your distro's package management.
Download the AppImage which matches your system's architecture from the Github releases page and optionally compare checksums.
# make AppImage file executable # note that AppImage release file names include the release version chmod +x ./streamlink-twitch-gui-v123.45.67-x86_64.AppImage # run the app ./streamlink-twitch-gui-v123.45.67-x86_64.AppImage

Due to build- and license restrictions and/or traffic limitations,
deb
packages for Debian, Ubuntu/*buntu, Linux Mint, Elementary, etc. andrpm
packages for Fedora, OpenSuse, etc. can't be created at the moment. An experiment with custom package repositories was done in late 2016, but unfortunately it didn't work out properly.If you want to help with the creation of a package for your distro, or even better, a Flatpak, Snap or AppImage package, then please open a new thread on the issue tracker. Thank you very much!

Regular archives (gzipped tarballs) of the latest release can be found on the Github releases page.
Download the archive that is matching your system's architecture (eg. "linux64" for x86_64 systems), optionally compare checksums and extract it to any directory you want. After extracting, execute the included
add-menuitem.sh
shell script once, so that app icons and menu entries get installed (remove-menuitem.sh
will remove them). This can be done as a regular user, or as root, so that app icons and menu entries get installed system-wide.Then simply run the
streamlink-twitch-gui
executable or use the newly added menu entry to launch the application.
