I see a lot of posts for apps that I would like to try but they all send me to a Github link - What is the process for getting an executable of these apps? Do I have to compile them myself? OR am I missing the .exe or .zip file option?

I really feel like I’m missing something easy…

    Projects don’t always provide pre built binaries. Some do, some don’t. Check the “Releases” page for the project and see if there’s an executable provided, otherwise you’ll need to build the project yourself or find someone who has.
