🛠️ FELF – AppImage-like single binaries without FUSE, root, or a runtime
Summary
FELF is a tool that packs a program along with its required shared libraries, its own glibc, and a patched dynamic linker into a single executable. It allows programs to run on any Linux distribution without needing FUSE, root access, or a separate runtime.
Why it’s interesting
It packages binaries and their dependencies into a single executable that works across different distros without FUSE, root, or a runtime.
Target user
