sandbox-app-launcher runs each app as its own user, in a bubblewrap sandbox and confined by apparmor.
The directory, /shared, is shared across all app sandboxes to transfer
files across.
This implements a permissions system to configure what apps can access. There are currently 5 available permissions:
-
Network access
-
Webcam access
-
Microphone access
-
Shared storage access (read-only or read-write)
-
Dynamic native code execution
All apps the user installs will be automatically configured to run in the sandbox and a prompt will ask the user which permissions they wish to grant the application (not implemented yet).
Currently a WIP and not for actual use.

2. Add the APT Signing Key.
sudo cp ~/derivative.asc /usr/share/keyrings/derivative.asc
3. Add the derivative repository.
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/derivative.asc] https://deb.kicksecure.com bookworm main contrib non-free" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/derivative.list
4. Update your package lists.
sudo apt-get update
