    A Flatpak of Doom Emacs? No. But you can just install the normal Emacs flatpak and then install Doom Emacs with 2 simple commands:

    git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs ~/.config/emacs

    ~/.config/emacs/bin/doom install

    Emacs will read these config files from the .config/emacs directory. Doom Emacs is not a different version of the program, it’s essentially just a set of configuration files.

        I don’t have a Linux Mint installation right now, but when I used Mint a few months ago this worked for me. The two commands are from the official Doom Emacs install guide. Could you tell me exactly what doesn’t work?

          when i use those commands it assume emacs is installed as a system package and installs to a different location not accessible to the flatpak

                Yes, it’s one single command. No, I haven’t noticed any major downsides of Emacs as a Flatpak.

                  what does the command do and do i have to use it whenever i run emacs or? i’ll try it when i get home but if it doesnt work is there any chance you have discord or revolt or matrix, etc.
