This is my attempt to package the app in flatpak, an universal linux package format.
I tried to follow these guides as closely as possible:
Now that I also added an appstream metainfo file, it would be great to introduce it also in the deb and the rpm! I'll try to do that but I'm not sure how to do it
From my testing the flatpak works great. Only issue I've encountered is the app indicator, like Ferdium flatpak it technically works but the right-click menu is displaced from the appindicator, and the theme is not GNOME's theme. But I think this is a problem that doesn't depend from us, must be some flatpak or libappindicator issue.
For testing purposes, the metainfo currently takes images from my repo https://github.com/bordam/webeep-sync-flatpak, we'll change that to the new images I inserted in the repo when this PR is merged.
If this works well and we end up merging, it could be published on https://flathub.org and be easily discoverable and installable on software stores! Most famous linux distributions support flathub out of the box! Linking this for future reference: https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-app-authors/submission
