It would also be good to mention that the args and versions listed here are just examples and that the source of truth is the flathub flatpak repo. That avoids us having to update the comment here whenever the flathub side changes.

// install flatpak builder
// install electron app from flathub. Ex: flatpak install flathub org.electronjs.Electron2.BaseApp/x86_64/25.08
