Packaging Applications
======================
Applications on the Librem 5 are supplied in two different package formats:
#. Debian packages are provided as part of the `PureOS`_ operating system
running on the phone. Core applications are provided in this format.
#. Flatpaks are created using the Flatpak suite of tools.
Purism provides the PureOS Store for users to browse and install
applications in both formats.
The following sections describe how to create packages in each format.
