    Is it possible to manage Cloudron using cockpit? Are they related somehow. It’s weird to me that so few people know about cockpit. I’m not a developer. I’m a power user, designer, with a hyper interest in making things. But the more I play with both of these tools the more I feel they are somehow kindred to each other.

    You can use cockpit for managing the server, you can install module like storage, networking, bridge, but now docker module, it's will not allow you do do much more then cloudron.

        So I thought I'd give this a try on my servers. Works great on all of them except my Cloudron ones - the service keeps going to inactive(dead) - Wondering if you had to do something interesting to make it play nice with Cloudron?

          It reminds me of Portainer I used to use a few years back for managing docker servers.
          Apparently can be run local if you're on Linux.

            @doodlemania2 Cloudron isn't designed to have anything else on the server so your results don't surprise me.

            I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

              Couldn't you install it on a server and then create child VMs for Cloudron instances?

              The other obvious question might be; what does Cockpit do that you want? Maybe there could just be some feature inspiration for Cloudron in it?

                That was my first thought indeed.
                I did not dig too deep into this, but it seems it can run from a local machine if you're on linux. I should give it a try sometimes soon as this is what I run as workstations.

                    @marcusquinn Honestly I recently saw an interface that i would love to see on cloudron. I recently saw it used by presslabs in their open source managed wordpress cloudpanel. they currently exclusivley have it on google cloud. Its kubernettes which intimidates me cause my brain just goes dead about 10 minutes into the tutorials.

                    https://www.presslabs.com/ alt text

                    If im not mistaken this is also the same interface (or super similiar) that webcataloge uses.

                      @derin Perhaps, reminds me of Runcloud too. Rancher is another, and D2C. I've worked with so many of them now over the years.

                          So has anyone been running cockpit on Cloudron? If so, what has your experience been like?
