Linux (AppImage)

No installation needed: give it execute permission and open it.

DownloadArquimeding-2.4.2-linux-x86_64.AppImage

Good to know

The 2.4.2 AppImage starts on its own. If you downloaded an older one (2.4.1 or earlier), add --no-sandbox to the command: on systems that block user namespaces (Ubuntu 23.10 and newer) Chromium refuses to start without it. The .deb never needs the flag: it installs an AppArmor profile that lets the app create user namespaces.

Command
chmod +x Arquimeding-2.4.2-linux-x86_64.AppImage && ./Arquimeding-2.4.2-linux-x86_64.AppImage --no-sandbox
