Installation

Download the latest release from GitHub Releases, then install the package for your platform.

macOS

  • Download the .pkg release package.
  • Open the installer and follow the setup steps.

Windows

  • Download the .exe release package.
  • Run the installer and follow the setup steps.

Linux

  • Download the .flatpak release package.
  • If Flatpak is not already installed on your system, enable it first.

For many Debian or Ubuntu based systems, that looks like:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y flatpak
sudo apt install -y gnome-software-plugin-flatpak
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo

You can then install and inspect the package with:

flatpak install --user FlexiGPT-vX.Y.Z.flatpak
flatpak info io.github.flexigpt.client

Run the app with:

flatpak run io.github.flexigpt.client
  • Known first-launch issue on Linux with Nvidia drivers

    • If you use Nvidia proprietary drivers, the app may open a blank window and close. Try launching it with:

      flatpak run --env=WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 io.github.flexigpt.client

If that works, the issue is likely the known WebKit rendering problem on some Linux setups.
