Bazaar Is the Flatpak Store GNOME Always Needed

posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Sep 03, 2025

Quoting: Bazaar Is the Flatpak Store GNOME Always Needed —

Flatpak has long established itself as the distribution-agnostic standard for software delivery on Linux. Some immutable Linux distributions even rely on it exclusively, given the nature of their design.

While experienced users often prefer managing Flatpaks through the command line, the majority—particularly newcomers—tend to favor graphical tools. Options like Warehouse already exist, but there’s always room for a fresh approach.

One of the latest is Bazaar—a new app store designed for GNOME, focused on discovering and installing applications and add‑ons through Flatpak remotes—especially Flathub. Released just two months ago, the project is quickly gaining traction and already has more than 800 stars on GitHub. And for good reason.
