flatpak

This guide describes how to install Kaidan on Linux by using the Flatpak repository.

1. Install Flatpak

If you haven't installed Flatpak already, you first need to do that. You will find instructions on their website. Generally installing it is rather easy since most distributions already provide packages for it.

2. Add the KDE repository

The Kaidan Flatpak builds are kindly provided and built by KDE. Thus, you need to add their repository:

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists kdeapps --from https://distribute.kde.org/kdeapps.flatpakrepo

3. Install Kaidan

Then you can simply install kaidan by:

flatpak install kdeapps im.kaidan.kaidan

You should now be able to find Kaidan in your start menu. Alternatively you can start it by running this command:

flatpak run im.kaidan.kaidan
