[Feature request] Add Flatpak and snap support #245

Open kacperpaczos opened 1 year ago

kacperpaczos commented 1 year ago

I would like MintSources to have two new tabs: Flatpak support and Snap support.

The Flatpak tab should have options for managing repositories: viewing current repositories, adding new ones, and enabling beta and nightly options from Flathub. It may also include a solution for installing beta or nightly versions of GNOME programs if they are available as flatpak. https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Nightly

The Snap tab should have a graphical interface for managing snaps and, until MintInstall supports this format, allow one-click installation of the Snap Store. https://snapcraft.io/snap-store sudo snap install snap-store --channel=preview/candidate https://github.com/ubuntu-flutter-community/software image
