Hi!

would you be interested in publishing a release on FlatHub?

https://flathub.org/

Instructions on how to publish a manifest are available here:

https://github.com/flathub/flathub/wiki/App-Submission

... but they do not provide clear instructions on how to actually write one. An example you could use is a similar project (mpd client, written in python) called mpdevil. Their manifest is here:

https://github.com/flathub/org.mpdevil.mpdevil

Having a flatpak published would make easier to try out your code, with some protections against possibly insecure code.

thanks, this project looks great! :)

Hi @anarcat, thanks for your interest. I am working on using Meson as build system (see #32, almost done), which would make supporting FlatPak easier. But since I don’t use FlatPak myself and have limited knowledge about it I would need some help. Of course I could check out examples and other projects but would you be willing to submit a patch?

I must admit I'm not overly familiar with flatpak myself, I am just a
user. What I could do is ask the flatpak community for help, as
suggested by the guide:

https://discourse.flathub.org/c/requests/5

Would you like me to do that?

That is a good option to have but I think it is too early. I would like to finish #32 at least and look into your links more closely.
