Install on Linux

System Requirements

• OS version：Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 11+, Fedora 38+
• Memory: 4GB
• CPU: 2 cores

Installation Instructions

Native .deb packages are available for Debian/Ubuntu-based systems. For other Linux distributions, the portable .AppImage format is recommended.

Method 1: DEB Package

Installation

The .deb format is the native installer for Debian-based systems. After installation, the app will be automatically added to your system application menu with a desktop shortcut.

1. Download the latest .deb package.
2. Double-click the .deb file for graphical installation. Alternatively, run the following commands in your terminal:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install ./PileaX-version-amd64.deb

Uninstallation

sudo apt remove pileax

Method 2: AppImage

AppImage is a portable software distribution format for Linux. No installation is required after downloading — you can launch the app directly.

1. Download the .AppImage file.
2. Double-click the .AppImage file to launch PileaX instantly without installation.

AppImageLauncher

By default, AppImage files will not be integrated into your system app list or create desktop shortcuts. AppImageLauncher solves this by integrating AppImage apps into your desktop environment.

Install AppImageLauncher (Ubuntu example):

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:appimagelauncher-team/stable
sudo apt update
sudo apt install appimagelauncher

Once installed, you will see an integration prompt when launching PileaX next time:
