Trinity Launcher Installation
Complete guide for Linux systems
Trinity Launcher is a community-driven project distributed primarily as a Flatpak package to ensure maximum compatibility and security across the Linux ecosystem.
Before you start
Make sure you have Flatpak installed on your system. This ensures that the launcher and its dependencies (like the community-maintained Minecraft Bedrock engines) run in a stable, isolated environment.
If you don't have it yet, visit the official setup guide: Go to Flatpak.org
