Any way to flatpak your way to MS's AVD client?
Any way to flatpak your way to MS's AVD client?
Hi guys! So, I'm rather happy that the github guide to build your own flatpak for the Citrix Workspace client allowed me to have a completely compact package that doesn't require a crapton of external libraries having access to anywhere in your root system. I love that I no longer need a full VM to achieve this (as I didn't want Citrix having access to my whole system, and I love how well the flatpak works). I'd like the same for Microsoft's AVD remote desktop client (not to be confused with RDP/mstsc etc).
Any idea if this is possible?
PS: Just in case, this is the guide to build your own flatpak-ed Citrix ICA client: https://github.com/dcloud-ca/ca.dcloud.ICAClient

You can use freerdp - so an existing flatpakket with xfreerdp/freerdp can be a great starting point
Afaik there’s no ms provided azure virtual desktop client for Linux
freerdp
So...freerdp does NOT include a GUI...right? Just trying to figure it out. Thanks!
No - it’s cli only. But I think there are 3rd party ones if shell is not your thing.
But IMO you should start familiarising with shell if you plan on staying with Linux - there’s probably options/settings and commands that are not part of gui for many different parts of your system.
I'm sure familiar with CLI, no worries. I just don't think a full remote desktop tool which has hundreds of switches/options and needs to go through SSO custom addresses and 2-factor is at its best on CLI mode.
