flatpack solves a deployment/distribution issue. distribution is irrelevant when you have nothing to distribute.
- merlijn_s 9y agoThe biggest issue is the distribution. One of the devs of the Minecraft Windows 10 edition said that it would be trivial to port that to desktop Linux but they would have to set up their own payment and distribution system, which just isn't worth it for that tiny market. Having packaging and distribution built into an IDE goes a great length to solve that issue.
