I recently rebased from Kinoite to Silverblue and I noticed I am missing a lot of default Gnome apps.
My understanding is that things like Text Edit, Calculator, etc are installed via Flatpak. Is there a way to install all the default SilverBlue Flatpaks so I can have parity with a fresh install?
It’s not the first time I’ve rebased and probably won’t be the last, so I am curious how to handle this in the future, not just what does SilverBlue have as a default right now (though I am also interested in that).

This information should be in some manifest file, but I just can’t find it ATM.
Looking at my system, these seem to be the default Flatpak apps for Silverblue:
org.gnome.Calculator
org.gnome.Calendar
org.gnome.Characters
org.gnome.Connections
org.gnome.Contacts
org.gnome.Decibels
org.gnome.Extensions
org.gnome.Logs
org.gnome.Loupe
org.gnome.Maps
org.gnome.NautilusPreviewer
org.gnome.Papers
org.gnome.Showtime
org.gnome.Snapshot
org.gnome.TextEditor
org.gnome.Weather
org.gnome.baobab
org.gnome.clocks
org.gnome.font-viewer
org.libreoffice.LibreOffice

It looks like this is all configured in https://forge.fedoraproject.org/releng/pungi-fedora/src/branch/main/fedora.conf#L833 . At least for Silverblue, not sure where the other spins are.
Which at the time of this post is:
app/org.gnome.baobab/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Calculator/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Calendar/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Characters/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Snapshot/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.clocks/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Connections/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Contacts/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Extensions/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.font-viewer/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.TextEditor/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Loupe/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Logs/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Maps/x86_64/stable
app/org.fedoraproject.MediaWriter/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.NautilusPreviewer/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Papers/x86_64/stable
app/org.gnome.Weather/x86_64/stable
So that is the canon way to get the list.
Not sure if there is any tooling around resyncing Flatpaks post rebase.
