Speaker
Description
Flatpak has become the de facto standard for distributing desktop Linux applications across distributions, and the XDG Desktop Portal ecosystem continues to evolve alongside it. This talk provides a status update on both projects: what's shipped recently, what's in progress, and where things are headed. We'll cover new, updated and planned portal interfaces, ongoing efforts to modernize the internals of Flatpak and preparations for a next-gen Flatpak. Whether you're an application developer, a desktop environment maintainer, or simply a curious user, come find out where things stand and how you can get involved.
