Flatpak (previously known as xdg-app) is a bundle system, based on ostree, to easily make available applications bundle to users. Currently, flatpack is available on openSUSE Tumbleweed but we don't ship any runtime based on openSUSE (freedesktop or GNOME runtime). Also, it could be interesting to generate flatpak bundle directly from OBS, if possible, using either available packages or directly application sourcecode.

The Kubic Project currently produces a "CaaSP-like" Tumbleweed OS, focused on Kubernetes clusters However many of the attributes of Kubic (read-only filesystem, transactional updates, containerised services) could be an interesting platform for another use A Chromebook-like Linux Desktop

Project Description

During the last 3 years working on zypper we constantly reiterated the idea to refactor zypper to get rid of a lot of cruft that has collected over the years ,but just recently I realized that we maybe should go one step further.

Project Description

Moving as much as possible of MicroOS Desktop into containers.

Project Description

Currently flatpak uses appstream-glib to parse and generate appstream files however, appstream-glib is no longer maintained and this has resulted in many features not being propagated to flatpak. There is currently 2 prs porting flatpak & flatpak-builder to appstream.
