Thanks @scarlettclark! Going to check it out.

I am assuming it's from master branch? If so it would be part of 3.1 release.

Also a question: is the plasma-framework dependency needed or just a habit?

so, appimage v flatpak ... pros/cons??

Lots of kde software are already using appimage, so its probably ready 'today' ... but is flatpak better for 'tomorrow' ?

We're where contributors are. I am curious how much can we minimize such independent packages (remove plasma dependency and so on).

Continuous integration building of images would also be nice
