  • Flatpak development actually started much earlier than that. The first version happened in 2007 when it was known as "Glick".

  • nix-bubblewrap

    Nix - bubblewrap integration (mirror)

  • Looking things up, someone has linked the Flatpak containerisation tech (bubblewrap) into the Nix store: https://github.com/fgaz/nix-bubblewrap

    It looks... somewhat abandoned, but I'd wager it still works today. Failing that, setting up a shell alias to launch a regular binary in bubblewrap isn't too hard either.
