What is GNOME Software?

This software provides a comprehensive platform for discovering, installing, and updating a wide range of applications and system components. Leveraging a robust plugin architecture, the software seamlessly integrates support for traditional package management systems, next-generation container-based formats like Flatpak and Snap, as well as firmware updates. Users can access detailed metadata, ratings, and reviews to make informed decisions about the software they choose to install. Crucially, the software operates as a background service, enabling automatic update notifications and serving as a searchable software catalog integrated with the GNOME desktop environment
