Simply put, it's a portable app for Linux, which has been a long-standing request (#1417). After you download the file, you'll first need to allow it to run as a program. You can do so by right clicking in your file manager, choosing `Properties` → `Permissions` and checking the box that reads `Allow this file to run as a program` or something equivalent. If you prefer to use the terminal, run `chmod +x koreader-appimage-x86_64-linux-gnu-v2015.11-1644-ge39ed90_2018-04-09.AppImage`.
