+* Install flatpak packages
+
+For anything I can't get through Homebrew for Linux I install via Flathub. Included in this repository is my ~Flatfile~ of packages. Unfortunately the ~flatpak~ cli [[https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5876][does not yet support list based installs]] so below is a bash oneliner to get the job done.

 * Secret management
 
 For managing secrets we use [[https://bitwarden.com/][bitwarden]] which provides a great [[https://github.com/bitwarden/cli][cli utility]]. Additionally in our [[.bashrc][bashrc]] file included in this repository there are a number of helper functions to make working with ~bw~ easier.
