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

Install Trinity Launcher

Choose the method that best fits your workflow.

This is the preferred way for community members who want the latest features and automatic updates directly from our development pipeline.

Run these commands in order in your terminal:

  1. Remove the Trinity repository (if you had the old version):

    bash
    flatpak remote-delete trinity
  2. Add the Trinity repository:

    bash
    flatpak remote-add trinity https://github.com/Trinity-LA/Trinity-Launcher/releases/download/flatpak/com.trench.trinity.launcher.flatpakrepo
  3. Install the KDE runtime (Qt6):

    bash
    flatpak install flathub org.kde.Platform//6.10
  4. Install the Qt WebEngine base:

    bash
    flatpak install flathub io.qt.qtwebengine.BaseApp//6.10
  5. Install Trinity Launcher:

    bash
    flatpak install com.trench.trinity.launcher

Advantages: Direct access to latest beta versions and automatic background updates.

Method B: From Software Store

If you prefer a graphical interface:

  1. Remove the old repository (if applicable):

    bash
    flatpak remote-delete trinity
  2. Add the repository first:

    bash
    flatpak remote-add trinity https://github.com/Trinity-LA/Trinity-Launcher/releases/download/flatpak/com.trench.trinity.launcher.flatpakrepo
  3. Search for "Trinity Launcher" in your Software Store (GNOME Software, Discover).

    Note: You may need to restart the store after adding the repo.

Method C: AppImage (Beta - Portable)

Ideal for users who prefer manual management without package managers.

  1. Download:

  2. Install Gear Level: Search for "Gear Level" in your App Store and install it.

  3. Open with Gear Level: Right-click the .AppImage file -> Open With -> Gear Level.

  4. Unlock & Integrate: Click "Unlock" to make it executable and "Add to apps menu" for easy access.
