Describe the feature
A new dist-appimage target to the Makefile that packages the needed files to distribute to the public correctly. It needs to package the app and output a wge.AppImage file. For this procedure it is needed the appimagetool tool.
Why should it be implemented? (optional)
To be able to release the first alpha version of the software, the program needs to be distributable without the need of building from source.
Do you think there is any alternative? (optional)
Yes, we need to also target other packaging solutions, both package-manager-specific and universal formats.
Additional context (optional)
N/A

After some research, the AppImage packaging format is not suited for library distribution. Closing issue as not planned.
