Setup guide for Zen Browser (Flatpak)

[Davis8483]

This addon should work fine for the normal installation of Zen. However, the Flatpak version does not seem to work.

To get around this issue...

1. Run the normal installation script curl -s -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kuba2k2/firefox-webserial/master/native/install/linux_x86_64.sh | bash
2. Allow Zen to run in the home directory instead of its container sudo flatpak override app.zen_browser.zen --filesystem=home
3. Give this addon permission flatpak permission-set webextensions io.github.kuba2k2.webserial app.zen_browser.zen yes
4. Copy all of your files from ~/.var/app/app.zen_browser.zen/.zen to ~/.zen
5. Close and re-open Zen.

Please leave a comment if this worked for you!

This should, in theory, work for any Firefox based browser installed via Flatpak. Ymmv ¯_(ツ)_/¯
