• Download archives from GitHub releases
• Check out tag branches corresponding the elementary Flatpak platform version you would like to target e.g 7.3.0 for the template targeting elementary Flatpak Platform 7.3. You can then manage the git history and refs to meet your needs.

After running the setup script, you will be ready to build the project.
