NAME

       flatpak - Build, install and run applications and runtimes

SYNOPSIS

       flatpak [OPTION...] {COMMAND}

DESCRIPTION

       flatpak is a tool for managing applications and the runtimes they use. In the flatpak
       model, applications can be built and distributed independently from the host system they
       are used on, and they are isolated from the host system ('sandboxed') to some degree, at
       runtime.

       flatpak can operate in system-wide or per-user mode. The system-wide data (runtimes,
       applications and configuration) is located in $prefix/var/lib/flatpak/, and the per-user
       data is in $HOME/.local/share/flatpak/. Below these locations, there is a local repository
       in the repo/ subdirectory and installed runtimes and applications are in the corresponding
       runtime/ and app/ subdirectories.

       System-wide remotes can be statically preconfigured by dropping config fragments into
       /etc/flatpak/remotes.d/.

       In addition to the system-wide installation in $prefix/var/lib/flatpak/, which is always
       considered the default one unless overridden, more system-wide installations can be
       defined via configuration files in /etc/flatpak/installations.d/, which must define at
       least the id of the installation and the absolute path to it. Other optional parameters
       like DisplayName, Priority or StorageType are also supported.

       flatpak uses OSTree to distribute and deploy data. The repositories it uses are OSTree
       repositories and can be manipulated with the ostree utility. Installed runtimes and
       applications are OSTree checkouts.

ENVIRONMENT

       Besides standard environment variables such as XDG_DATA_DIRS and XDG_DATA_HOME, flatpak is
       consulting some of its own.

       FLATPAK_USER_DIR
           The location of the per-user installation. If this is not set, $XDG_DATA_HOME/flatpak
           is used.

       FLATPAK_SYSTEM_DIR
           The location of the default system-wide installation. If this is not set,
           /var/lib/flatpak is used (unless overridden at build time by --localstatedir or
           --with-system-install-dir).

       FLATPAK_CONFIG_DIR
           The location of flatpak site configuration. If this is not set, /etc/flatpak is used
           (unless overridden at build time by --sysconfdir).
