That is possible, but the goal is to serve Snap container for applications that can be downloaded and used by the user, down a single binary that will have all the dependencies in that binary. Docker and LXC obviously can do this, but its scope and possibilities are much larger and are not addressed within the scope of normal user of a PC. > When Flatpak's ready, someone'll make it available and/or package it.

In addition, Flatpak packages weigh less than their counterparts Snap, and right now several free software projects officially support it, including LibreOffice. -- Dios en su cielo, todo bien en la Tierra
