Problem description
Since Freecad already has a flatpak manifest it should be easy to add the build of a single file flatpak bundle to the process.
The benefits for us users over the .appimage is that we can install the app and it will behave like any other installed app, we get a configurable sandbox environment and we can cleanly uninstall it.
No setup of an flatpak repository needed, the .flatpak file could be shipped via the website as the .appimage file.
Workbench affected?
None
