Research direction
Start by reviewing the repository's structure and existing build scripts. Check the comments on the issue for any prior discussion on packaging. Investigate how the application is currently built and dependencies. Research each packaging format (snap, nix, AppImage, flatpak) and create a plan. Consider opening a draft PR to gather feedback.
