It is designed to provide a dedicated platform for discovering and installing Flatpak applications, catering to both desktop and mobile devices such as the PinePhone, PineTab, and Librem 5. Leveraging the flexibility of Flatpak, Souk aims to offer a focused and streamlined app store experience, without the additional functionalities found in broader software management tools like GNOME Software.
