When initializing a build you can initialize the application directory
with the files from another directory, and optionally a set of its
extensions. This allows one to create a "base" application that
can be derived from in multiple forms. A typical example is an application
framework like Electron. The base electron app has all the dependencies
needed to write Electron app, and then your manifest can add the specific
files needed for your application.
An example snipped could look something like:
"base": "org.base.App",
"base-version": "stable",
"base-extensions": ["org.base.app.Locale", "org.base.app.Debug" ],
Flatpak is a system for building, distributing and running sandboxed desktop applications on Linux.
