AppStream is a cross-distribution effort for enhancing the way we
|
|
interact with the software repositories provided by Linux distributions
|
|
by standardizing software component metadata.
|
|
It provides the foundation to build software-center applications,
|
|
by providing metadata necessary for an application-centric view on
|
|
package repositories. AppStream additionally provides specifications for
|
|
things like an unified software metadata database, screenshot services
|
|
and various other things needed to create user-friendly
|
|
application-centers for (Linux) distributions.
