Apps

Runtimes

Runtimes provide basic dependencies that can be used by applications. They also provide the environment that applications run in.

Platforms

Base Apps

Base apps contain collections of bundled dependencies which can then be bundled as part of an application.

Portal

Flatpak apps interface with the host system mostly via DBUS calls to the a daemon xdg-desktop-portal running on the host system.

Backends

To implement most portals, the portal relies on backends like these that provides implementations of the org.freedesktop.impl.portal.* interfaces.

Contribute

Contributions welcome. Don't feel the need to put too much effort into it. For now, anything flatpak focused will be accepted and I'll work on the formatting if needed.
