./build.shThis will:
- Download the latest Firefox Nightly.

flatpak-builder. - Create or update a local Flatpak remote
firefox-nightly-localpointing at the localrepo/directory. - Install or update
org.mozilla.FirefoxNightlyfrom that local remote.
I wanted Firefox Nightly on Linux and couldn't find an option that wasn't half-broken. On Fedora especially, the COPR repos are either dead or need more effort to keep working than they're worth.
Flatpak ended up being the least annoying option. It's distro-agnostic, updates cleanly and generally has less hassle.
