flatpak is designed for gui apps, registering a desktop icon and so on. To 
really make use of it we'd need at least a small gui app that then lets you 
start/stop the jupyter server and/or launch browser windows. 

If you just want to run Sage then there is already a one-liner podman / 
docker command to download and run it (and with podman any user account can 
do it, no permission setup needed):

 podman run  -it sagemath/sagemath
