What is an MLAPPINSTALL file?

An MLAPPINSTALL file is a compressed app installation package that stores an app created by The MathWorks MATLAB, a programming and numeric computing application. It includes everything required to install the app in MATLAB, including the source code, supporting information (including dependencies), and the icon for the app. MATLAB users create MLAPPINSTALL files to share apps with other MATLAB users they have built with the software.

MATLAB is a technical computing system that engineers and scientists may use to analyze, visualize, and manipulate data. Among its features, the software provides an integrated development environment (IDE) to develop apps, which include a tool for visualizing blood pressure data, a finance calculator, etc.

With this feature, you can design the interface of the app and program its capabilities (and save it as an .MLAPP file). Then, when you are ready to distribute it, you can compile the MLAPP file to a web or standalone desktop app or as an MLAPPINSTALL package to share with other MATLAB users.

How to create an MLAPPINSTALL file with MATLAB

To create an MLAPPINSTALL file with MATLAB, select Package App in the "APPS" tab, then click Package. You can also create the file while designing the app by selecting Share → MATLAB App, then clicking Package.

How to open an MLAPPINSTALL file

You can only open an MLAPPINSTALL file with The MathWorks MATLAB (multiplatform). To open an MLAPPINSTALL file, select the APPS tab, then click Install App.
