An AppImage is a type of cross-distribution packaging (or bundling) format. It is essentially a self-mounting (using Filesystem in Userspace, or FUSE for short) disk image containing an internal file system for running the application it provides. This internal file system includes all the binaries and libraries required by the application that cannot be reasonably expected to be provided by the base operating system (that is, the Linux system on which the AppImage is being run).
