3 Welcome to AppImage. A good starting point for most questions is our wiki at https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki
7 ### I would like to request an AppImage for an application
9 If there is no AppImage of your favorite application available, please request it from the author(s) of the application, e.g., as a feature request in the issue tracker of the application. For example, if you would like to see an AppImage of Mozilla Firefox, then please leave a comment at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1249971. The more people request an AppImage from the upstream authors, the more likely is that an AppImage will be provided.
11 ### I would like to provide an AppImage for my application
13 If you are an application author and would like to make your application available as an AppImage, please start here: https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/Creating-AppImages. Feel free to open a [GitHub Issue](https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/issues) in the AppImageKit project if you need support using the tools provided by AppImageKit.
15 ### I would like to have my AppImage included in the AppImageHub central directory of available AppImages
17 Please see the [AppImageHub Readme](https://github.com/AppImage/appimage.github.io/blob/master/README.md).
