Really cool project I found, and is working great for me so far. You can even build a custom version of WebCord using one of the open PRs which allows you to share audio on a screen share. Used it with friends last night and it ran solid for hours.

AppImage is a lot better than Flatpak because it isn't a walking security nightmare (http://flatkill.org).

But yeah, I got a build working with the PR. I'm not on my computer right now, but it's a pinned PR in the GitHub issues for the WebCord project. You go to the fork with the branch, you run a couple of quick npm commands and then you can do a build.

I did have to remove a few of the package makers because they'd set it up to do a .deb build, and I haven't used apt in years. I vaguely think they had a Flatpak or a Snapcraft package maker in there too, but I don't use those.

You run the make and package commands which you can find in the package.json file, then it outputs a built application for you.
