Sparrow on Webtop for StartOS

Webtop is an innovative Linux desktop environment that allows users to access a complete Linux desktop directly from their web browser. This repository creates the s9pk package that is installed to run the Sparrow desktop wallet on a stripped down version of Webtop on StartOS. Learn more about service packaging in the Developer Docs.

Alternatively the package can be built for individual architectures by specifying the architecture as follows:
