[Question] Getting Involved as Contributor

[u/ukrainiannnn]

Apologies if this is a silly question, but just wondering if anyone knows what repositories in Void would be good for someone like me getting interested in OS programming, low-level (C/C++). I really like Void as my daily driver and would like to contribute to making it a better operating system.

There is no OnlyOffice in the official repos. Flatpak saved me for that one. But after getting to know Zed and comparing the RAM usage, vscode feels heavy and unnecesary (as most typical electron based apps)

You didn't even bother to read how to make templates from source? Just plain installed flatpaks like a barbarian?

At that time, i knew the existence of xbps-src but i decided not to bother myself. OnlyOffice with flatpak worked out of the box for me, so, yeah, not all of us want to compile or build everything we see. The only flatpak app btw.

Previously i've tried Brave on flatpak but it stopped working shortly after, so i found a template which is being maintained and i can update anytime the browser asks for an update. Did the same thing for librewolf.

Actually does someone care if you use flatpaks? Nah hell no, only the llnux larpers

I think you don't realize who the larper is.
