I was just looking at this, looks really nice.
Here's how to install an instance:

Looks good. Astuto post here for comparison: https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3001/astuto-for-user-customer-feedback-and-roadmap

Fider looks more actively maintained. I vote Fider!
-
@jdaviescoates Iām unsure about their release schedule but either way Iād like one of these
From a UI perspective I much prefer Astuto BUT they make one critical mistake for me: no tagged releases.

The demo isn't working for me, but I've just checked the screenshots from github and it does look nice
But, no that different to Fider either, so intrigued as to why you much prefer Astuto UI?

@jdaviescoates hahaha it honestly might be just me seeing pretty colours and being drawn to that
-
ClearFlask is another alternative:

PeerTube have an instance of Fider running here:

Would love to have this on Cloudron

Looks nice and simple. Cross-posting Flarum as a similar app too:
-
@eddowding fider is not even 1.0 yet.

@girish I just had a look at the GitHub, and it's one of those projects where low numbers doesn't mean it's not stable yet.
It's already in production for some big websites (like OBS project, but there are othey examples, see https://github.com/getfider/fider/issues/899 ), and while the developer had burned out in the past, they have now committed, more than a year ago, to stay on PR submitted and security updates.
-
Meantime Clearflask (mentioned above) seems actively more mature and in more production use than Fider, so would probably get my vote.
It really feels like a bounty / marketplace for docker-cloudronification** would open up this challenge to more people, and allow easier prioritisation.
Something like https://app.bountysource.com/
** Because I don't understand what I'm talking about

@eddowding This bounty type development has been talked about multiple times across the years, and it never took off in the Cloudron app packaging context.
Having packagers scratch their itch or Cloudron devs taking time to do it for their customers has been the most successful ways of getting an app packaged.Interestingly, one of the thing valued by Fider users is its simplicity. Not everyone has the same needs, so different solutions with different approaches are equally valuable.
-
@eddowding my napkin / fag packet is 2 - 4 apps p/month, allowing for testing and preserving Cloudron standards and quality.
Which is quite a high cost per app.
And some complex apps may be simply not possible.
Just my 2p. -
