#How to Flatpak a Rust application properly

I've made a small game in the Bevy engine and I want to package it as a flatpak and distribute it on flathub, but I can't seem to figure it out. Would appreciate someone experienced with the topic walking me through the process.

Hi @gentle prairie

There is an article from 2020 on Bevy and Flatpak, but that is outdated.

Your best bet could be to ask this on Bevy Discord.

I tried that already, it stopped at an outdated article. Asking here exactly because this is more general purpose Rust

#

and making flatpaks isn't library specific

I think because of this, it should be asked again.

#

What is the state of it now?

#

It is ambigous.

could be useful, I do wish to use flatpak as a channel of distribution

I would not recommend using flatpak, snap or any other way to statically package your bevy game and used environment.

Maybe it can work though...

sounds odd for this problem to be supposedly rust/bevy specific
