As mentioned in #74, the apps that are used to demo Flatpak aren't ideal and we could do with a demo app of our own, in order to give us some control and allow us to show off Flatpak's features.

Some things the app should probably do:

  • Use GTK or Qt
  • Bundle 2/3 modules
  • Use recommended/common sandbox permissions
  • Some cleanup
  • Rename some files?
  • Make use of portals?
  • Look nice when it's run

I'll try to come up with something next week if you want a Qt demo app.

I've done a quick mockup for the app here:

@grulja has created the demo app at https://github.com/grulja/flatpak-demo/ . We ought to figure out what's left to do before we can start using it in the docs.

The demo app is now hosted on Flathub, but it needs some extra modules adding to the manifest.
