T3 Code Linux Installer

This is an optional desktop-focused Linux installer bundle for the existing T3 Code AppImage release artifacts. It is not a replacement for the AppImage itself.

• Upstream app repo: https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code
• Companion installer repo: https://github.com/kryptobaseddev/t3code-linux-installer

Releases from this repo publish a ready-to-download .tar.gz bundle containing the installer script, README, and icons.

Why this exists

The raw AppImage is still the primary release artifact, but it does not integrate consistently across Linux desktops. This bundle smooths over the gaps that commonly show up in real installs:

• desktop entry and icon setup
• per-user install layout under ~/.local
• FUSE detection with --appimage-extract-and-run fallback
• built-in update, reinstall, and uninstall actions
• GUI dialogs when zenity or kdialog is available

It is especially useful on systems where AppImage does not quite "just work" out of the box.

What it does

• downloads the latest T3-Code-*.AppImage release from pingdotgg/t3code
• verifies the downloaded AppImage checksum when release metadata includes a digest
• installs the AppImage under ~/.local/bin by default
• installs desktop entries and icons under ~/.local/share
• keeps a local copy of the installer under ~/.local/share/t3-code/installer
• adds launcher actions for update, reinstall, and uninstall

Run it

chmod +x ./install-t3-code-linux.sh
./install-t3-code-linux.sh

Common options

./install-t3-code-linux.sh --force
./install-t3-code-linux.sh --no-launch
./install-t3-code-linux.sh --quiet-current
./install-t3-code-linux.sh --system

Notes

• designed for desktop Linux environments that follow freedesktop menus and icon paths
• installs per-user by default, so no sudo is required
• optional --system mode installs under /opt/t3-code and /usr/local
• requires curl and python3
