    If you manage to pack and maintain an Magento app, it would increase Cloudrons audience and reach by a lot. I think it won't be that easy because Magento is heavyweight. The company I worked before has a product that does just that --> https://www.blugento.com/shop-factory 🙂 Most interesting thing would be Magento Open Source.

    I have magento running in a regular LAMP app for years now, not sure if this needs a seperate app.

      It does. For all those people who are using Cloudron exactly so they don't have to bother with installing things on a LAMP stack 🙂

      I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

        @jdaviescoates it's just a bit of a monster, having automated updates on that might lead to more problems than it would solve. Like theme/plugin incompatibility or the php version in use (one plugin I had took a very long time to become >PHP7.0 compatible and the whole shop wasn't working after upgrading too soon).

        I'm no magento expert, but it seems to require a lot of customization to get your use case to work. I would love to see it in the app store as well but I doubt that it's possible to make a package that works for everyone.

          @msbt +1 on monster - have worked with it a lot and it is VERY picky and complex.

            @msbt
            (1) I'm trying to move my magento (2.3.4) to LAMP, it required PHP 7.3..
            but current LAMP only supports php 7.4
            I can't downgrade LAMP to php 7.3

            (2) I tried to install a fresh Magento (2.4.0) on LAMP couple of days ago, but failed. to load the installation wizard.

                  Yes, It's working, many thanks for your help.

                  Note: as I'm using magento in some dev extensions, I always need a fresh copy for test, this is one of best practice for using cloudron (ability to create a fresh copy of many many apps like wordpress, ghost, discourse.. test it, destroy it, start again..).

                  So, I created a fresh copy, backed it to S3, downloaded the backup file, to keep a fresh copy of magento.

                    Personally, I think Magento would be a long and specialist project for optimising, moreso than Wordpress & Woo.

                    I recommend Magento stays a self-service install on LAMP until there's more significant admin and optimisation experience from those dedicated to it, and time is reserved for WP & Woo, that I feel can do all Magento does and more, and has more experience here optimising.

                        @humptydumpty Been there and backed out of that a few times. Nothing particularly wrong with it but it will just need more resources and pricey plugins and developers than WP & Woo or Odoo.

                        I still maintain that having Odoo in Cloudron would probably make many other app requests redundant.
