Ok turns out, that Grist releases after Sept. 11th come with a broken pyodide sandboxing layer (see https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-core/issues/734).
I got everything running using an earlier Grist release (1.1.4 from Sept 8th or so). Before this can be considered for the app store I need to polish the metadata, etc. But you should be able (we do) to install it to your Cloudron using the CLI.
Repo is here: https://git.cloudron.io/walski/grist-app
How little?
16GB RAM, 6 core AMD whatever virtual server. Currently running 13 apps through Cloudron.

16GB RAM
Yeah, that's not much RAM really (especially if you're running some RAM heavy apps), so possibly not surprising it's running slow. I wonder how it'd be if you had more resources... I guess once that issues is resolves and we get it into the Cloudron App Store we'll find out!
Thank you for your efforts, much appreciated

Side-note: Looks like direct OIDC support just landed on Grist's

Grist is now available for YunoHost. It was announced in the Grist Community November 2023 Newsletter.
Looking for a simpler way to self-host Grist? Florent has also packaged Grist on YunoHost, a Debian-based OS designed to help democratize self-hosting. Check out Florent’s post in our forum for more information.
The post:
Self-hosting Grist made easy with Yunohost

Yip, they released v1.1.9 on Dec 2nd. That release includes the pyodide fix to run Grist sandboxed within Cloudron, as well as their direct OIDC support (see docs: https://support.getgrist.com/install/oidc/#openid-connect).
I'm more than happy to incorporate these onto my branch and that should then give us a decent to maybe get it into the app store? I just can't promise a timeline right now

New release highlights below.
I like that there is a desktop app. Has anyone been able to play with it. I assume it integrates with the cloud app? Sometimes it is nice to be able to take things offline.Released: Grist v1.1.11

Each field is automatically tied to a spreadsheet column so analysis is super simple. https://www.getgrist.com/forms/ New calendar widget for displaying dates. https://support.getgrist.com/widget-calendar/ Advanced Chart and JupyterLite Notebook custom widgets - very powerful for advanced dataviz and Python work.https://support.getgrist.com/widget-custom/#advanced-charts

How's it running these days?
Have you added the easy-install.sh script yet?

Just discovered grist has two pages of webinars that could be helpful for onboarding. Getting people to use tools... videos are helpful.

Hello, is there any progress on the integration of Grist with Cloudron? I can't wait for this to happen!

Yeah, it'll be great to have Grist and to be able to integrate it with Outline!

Hello, I wonder, is anyone is working on this? Seems like grist is ahead of the others regarding what it offers in the self hosted version.

+1 also think this would be great

OMG, Grist looks amazing!! It looks like it shows referenced (aka linked) data values rather than just "2 linked values" as Nocodb does. And it comes with granular access rules. And it supports most Excel functions??
I would like to hereby add ten votes. -
I took a closer look at and tested the free version of Getgrist today, and I found it to be significantly more advanced than BaseRow and NoboDB. It offers features such as duplicate detection, complex formulas, access rules, and conditional formatting, all within the free version. It is also noticeably faster. I can't wait to make the switch and hope to see it on Cloudron soon.
