I'd like to invite Fedora contributors to start creating Flatpaks
of
graphical applications in Fedora. We're still working on putting the
final pieces into place to have a complete story from end to end, but
it's definitely close enough to get started.
If you maintain a graphical application, please try creating a Flatpak
of it. Your experience will vary - some applications are quite easy,
but if your application, for example:
* Uses qt5-qtwebengine
* Uses many KDE libraries
* Uses many Perl or Python packages
* Uses texlive
etc, then you may want to wait - we will eventually be creating shared
builds to make bundling these easier.

Ah, make bundling easier, right. Finally we can bundle!

Honestly, I fail to see how this can be promoted as good for Fedora. It
might be good for upstream but not for Fedora.

Also, if your application has a system service, installs a polkit
policy, or otherwise is not self-contained, then it's not a good
candidate for a Flatpak.
Or you can pick one of 280+ applications that have been identfied as
easy to Flatpak:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Flatpak:Easy
and assist out the application package maintainer by creating a
Flatpak of that.
An introduction, draft tutorial and other documentation can be found at:
https://fishsoup.net/misc/fedora-docs-flatpak/flatpak/
(The plan is to integrate this into
docs.fedoraproject.org
<
http://docs.fedoraproject.org>. For now, the documentation source
is at:
https://github.com/owtaylor/fedora-docs-flatpak)
For help, please ask on #fedora-workstation on Freenode, or mail
desktop(a)lists.fedoraproject.org <mailto:desktop@lists.fedoraproject.org>.
