    Hello everyone, I am developing a non-profit animation studio and would like to ask for help in packaging the Kitsu production tracker app. I would like to use it on my Cloudron instance where authenticated users would be able to access-it. I've submitted the app to the Cloudron wish list, but I don't expect it to be picked up any time soon. The developers provide a docker file, but for some reason it is not recommended for production. If anyone is interested, please send me a direct message and we can discuss compensation. Best wishes OsObO

    @rxlict yes, if the build fails, everything will go pear-shaped. Trying to go ahead will fail. The important step is to solve the build issue, which will be in how the Dockerfile is constructed. Can you share which app you're trying to package? Stick with it : it can be a frustrating process solving the build issues, but once you have success, it's all worth while.

    It is not difficult to find the problematic docker if you look at the log. You can also use a monitoring service https://www.host-tracker.com/en that will detect problems automatically and notify you.

    @timconsidine Are you asking if we plan to integrate it into Cloudron? There are no plans as such.

    It's also a huge savings on disk to have most apps based on the same base image instead of many independent ones adding up to Gigabytes of duplication.

    @saikarthik That seems like a no brainer for WordPress, especially if you're going to have the customer do menu updates themselves. There are a plethora of WP resources and ways to get help too, depending on your support model. EspoCRM could be set-up to handle that and taking online orders, etc. with additional compelxity. On the other hand, if it's not something with online orders, any menu can be made into a super simple static site/page with the menu being a few images or an embeded PDF. Depends on how fancy do you want to go.

    @YoMaCloud I still have the old OVA file for this if anyone is interested. It's older linux though so IDK what needs to be updated.

    @fbartels Yes, hence the ask for a single place to set it, so it's in use until changed and the change survives updates.

    @samir Those are the main solutions that stood out to me for varying reasons. Its nice to have choice and it kinda sucks that they are all missing a key component to be "Ideal" in one way or another lol I do have faith that these will all get better and one will come out on top though
