F-Droid is a great open source app store that allows you to download and install free and open source apps on your Android device. If you're running Fedora CoreOS Latest and want to install F-Droid, this tutorial will guide you through the steps.
F-Droid can be installed via Flatpak, so the first step is to make sure Flatpak is installed on your Fedora CoreOS system. Here's how to install Flatpak:
sudo rpm-ostree install flatpak
F-Droid isn't available in the main Fedora CoreOS repository, so we'll need to add the Flathub repository. Here's how to do it:
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
Now that we have Flatpak and the Flathub repository set up, we can finally install F-Droid! Here's how to install it:
flatpak install flathub org.fdroid.fdroid
That's it! F-Droid should now be installed on your Fedora CoreOS Latest system.
In this tutorial, we learned how to install F-Droid on Fedora CoreOS Latest via Flatpak. With F-Droid installed, you can download and install a wide range of open source applications on your Android device.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
