Ship a Flatpak on Flathub

[leherkom]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Flatpaks are distribution-agnostic and provide a better integration into the desktop environment than an AppImage (in my personal experience). Flathub is also pretty popular and ships as an app store on many distros that don't use the Snap store.

Describe the solution you'd like
Kanri could be shipped as a .deb package, an AppImage and a Flatpak.

Additional context
Willing to look into this when the Tauri v2 migration is completed.

Thanks for your suggestion! I really want to do this but have been held back by the pending Tauri v2 migration. I haven't had a lot of time to work on Kanri lately and the migration would need quite a bit some testing, so no time estimate when I can get to it.

[leherkom]

Is there any way to feasibly help with the migration? I'd like to contribute more but currently can't build Kanri on my laptop.

[trobonox]

Can you still not build it? I recently fixed the dependencies and that solved the issues for other people who could not get it to build.

In general the migration is just held back by me having pretty much no time for development at this moment because I'm quite busy with studies and personal things. It's not a very difficult process and I had it partially completed on a branch (should tauri-v2-migration), but it requires a lot of testing + a bumped version of tauri-plugin-store which restores backwards compatibility with the v1 version of the plugin.

If you think you can work with that, feel free to give it a shot (and while I can't do development, I'm always free to help out over Discord)

I'm one of the people that can't install libwebkit2gtk-4.0, that seems to be dependency that is hard-wired in Tauri v1 (see also here: tauri-apps/tauri#9662). I probably can't build any Tauri v1 project at all.

But thanks for the hint, I'm on holiday r/n so I think I'll give it a shot.
