Distributing applications on Linux is a pain: different distributions in multiple versions, each with their own versions of libraries and packaging formats. Flatpak is here to change all that. It allows the same app to be installed on different Linux distributions, including different versions. And it has been designed from the ground up with security in mind, so that apps are isolated from each other and from the host system. Features: • Quickly and easily search or install applications using https://flathub.org • Get more recent version of application Flatpak is widely popular with both Linux users and Linux software developers who are interested in installing the most recent versions of the application or using the optional package manager built-in sandbox environment. While at the same time remaining in control of the security. • Directly provide updates to users Flatpak allows application developers to directly provide updates to users without going through distributions, and without having to package and test the application separately for each distribution.[9]
