Pop OS! is based on Ubuntu. So you can download the .Deb file from packages.linuxmint.com or you can add the deb http://packages.linuxmint.com uma main to your apt list. Then do sudo apt update; sudo apt install webapp-manager.

I apologize, but I have no knowledge on how appimage works. Since you mentioned the Pop OS and I know it's ubuntu based, i suggested the .deb method.

Btw what did you try? Making an appimage, or downloading and installing the .deb file.

You can also download the .deb file and install it directly.

Can you post what you did?
All you have to download the .deb.
Then from the directory where the .deb file is located open a terminal and type the following commands

  1. sudo dpkg -i *.deb
  2. sudo apt install -f

1. sudo dpkg -i *.deb

ok i have tried downloading the .deb file from here http://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/main/w/webapp-manager/

i downloaded this file
webapp-manager_1.1.1.tar.xz | 2021-Jan-12 06:00:38 | 61.1K | application/x-xz

extracted it to a folder named apps

buti was not able to find a .deb file anywhere so i tried to use sudo dpkg -i *.deb many place but i kept getting
the error below

noname@pop-os:~/APPs$ sudo dpkg -i .deb
[sudo] password for noname:
