Running 1Password GUI on Alpine Linux with Docker

Technically, the browser extension does talk to the desktop application, but only if it detects the desktop application present and only if you've enabled Browser Integration in the desktop application. Otherwise, it is a fully functional application on its own, and actually predates the Linux desktop application by quite a few years. It's how I started using 1Password for my personal life, before I even knew that a Linux application was in the works.
A flatpak distribution is available, though it isn't yet listed on our installer page. I'm working with our documentation writers to get those instructions posted there, instead of just having them floating around here in the forum. However, if you want it, this is how to install it:
flatpak install https://downloads.1password.com/linux/flatpak/1Password.flatpakref
or
flatpak install https://downloads.1password.com/linux/flatpak/1Password-beta.flatpakref
Now, I'm really interested in what kind of backing store you are thinking of. We haven't done much in that direction, but I've also thought about what it would mean to use 1Password instead of the desktop keyring. We have some things in the works and are going to be very interested in additional ideas.
