Flatpak build of [Arduino IDE 2.x](https://github.com/arduino/arduino-ide). To run the
app you need USB permissions, preferably, the user has to be part of the
`dialout` group. Alternatively, add
`dialout` group. Alternatively, add:
``` sh
KERNEL=="ttyUSB[0-9]*",MODE="0666"
KERNEL=="ttyACM[0-9]*",MODE="0666"

flatpak run cc.arduino.IDE2 --log-level=warn
```
which only displays warning or above in the log output to the console.

## Adding permanent custom flags to the IDE
If you need to always start the IDE with custom arguments then the best way to do this is to use `flatpak override`.
For example:
``` sh
flatpak override --user --env=CUSTOM_IDE_FLAGS="--log-level=warn" cc.arduino.IDE2
```
This is also useful if you want to enable electron's (potentially experimental) wayland support:
``` sh
flatpak override --user --socket=wayland cc.arduino.IDE2
flatpak override --user --env=CUSTOM_IDE_FLAGS="--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland" cc.arduino.IDE2
```
It is important to note that if you are experiencing issues with the IDE you MUST disable any custom flags you have before submitting a bug report here or on the IDE's bug tracker as this functionality is not officially supported.
