I'm trying to install some Flatpak apps on my newly installed Guix system.

I found this link https://flatpak.org/setup/GNU%20Guix which says I should these commands.

$ guix install flatpak
$ flatpak --user remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

After running those commands, I restarted my computer, just to be safe.

Then I logged into GNOME again and noticed I did not have GNOME software center installed. Normally that's how I install Flatpaks...

I tried installing some stuff through the CLI with this command.

$ flatpak install --user flathub com.logseq.Logseq

and that seems to have worked, but Logseq isn't showing up in my app launcher.

I can manually launch it with flatpak run com.logseq.Logseq, but it would be great if I could launch it from the normal app launcher.

So... are flatpaks supported in Guix? Or am I missing some configuration?

With the idea of promoting the usage of Guix and of my favourite programming language Guile Scheme, I created a small project which is still in early stages, but I think with some more love and effort can be quite something.

The Guile ShowHub! Promoting all Guile projects out there! By reading from foss Guix project source code we can tap into a plethora of information, and leverage the homoiconicity of Lisp to directly analyze the source code and extract info.

Generate SVG images for handy useful glyphs, org/markdown badges and more, from Lisp (Guile Scheme)

https://codeberg.org/jjba23/ggg

Be proud and appreciate technologies and techniques you use, distinguish clearly supported versions of things, etc. With flexible support for badges between one and three parts.

Through SVG generation from Lisp (Guile Scheme) we leverage a beautiful DSL and apply some mathematical knowledge to build pixel perfect badges. These SVG can then be easily converted without quality loss to any desired format.

With GGG, you have the power to create your own badges and images with a consistent and clean aesthetic.
