This is to announce Flatpak support for Sailfish. Its raw on the edges, limited, but possible and, hopefully, will be available for your SFOS devices. With it, Flatpak allows you to use latest SDKs for your code development and running applications developed for Linux and distributed in this format.

Development is done via repositories at https://github.com/sailfishos-flatpak.

For issues and documentation see https://github.com/sailfishos-flatpak/main

Right now, Flatpak support is available for Sony Xperia Tama devices (unofficial port) with the hope that other devices will follow. Due to QtWayland limitations, only Qt/QML applications run well with Gdk apps refusing to start due to the absence of currently standard Wayland extensions.

For issues, see README at Github and its issue trackers.
