Install applications in a sandbox recomendations
Hello comunity !!!
Which technology for Arch Linux of course would you recommend me to encapsulate a Sandboxed Application Install ? So that way i just go for the "image" to download and just install the app. Thank you again !!!

Re: Install applications in a sandbox recomendations
You're going to have to be a lot more specific if you want actual help.
Why do you want/need to sandbox the "app"? What "app" is this? If you are going to download an existing image from somewhere that you want to use, you don't get a choice, you use the format they provide: is it a flatpack, or docker image, or ...

Sorry i already know Docker, i have been searching the web for days and didnt remembered flatpack was also a great solution, in fact as i couldnt find anything i thought flatpack have been disapeared 
, so i think i will go for flatpack. Thank you for the help you save me even more days of searching.
