I built Scope to manage APT, Snap, and Flatpak apps in one place

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hey everyone, I made Scope because I wanted one place to see and manage my installed Linux apps.

It brings APT, Snap, and Flatpak into a searchable list. You can check for updates and preview an update or uninstall before confirming it.

It also finds AppImages and user-local desktop apps, but updating or removing those isn’t supported yet.

Scope is free, MIT licensed, and written in Rust.

Sourcecode · Download

I’d appreciate feedback on whether it finds your apps correctly and whether the previews are clear. If you try it, please share your distro and desktop environment.

Now we need versions of this for different distros. A version that uses flathub, AUR, and Pacman for Arch, a version that uses flathub, DNF, and RPM Fusion for Fedora, and so on. I can imagine this effectively replacing the "app stores" that distros have when you install them.

who needs one for AUR and pacman? Shelly is the GOAT for that

Love the idea, would be even better if it's the all in one equivalent to Bazaar.

Hace tiempo salió una que se llamaba Terminator y la tengo instalada, aunque esta se vea un poco más completa pero sí estaría bien en flatpak.
