Is it possible to build an app/container that you can just ssh into?

I use containers for FPGA development, mainly to use Intel Quartus on macOS.

If I ended up having a pretty beefy server to power my Cloudron, I was wondering if it was possible/feasible to build an app/container that contains an install of Quartus (similar to the one linked to above) but that wouldn't have any other purpose than for me to be able to ssh into and remote build projects.

Would that be do-able?

Yes, the gitea/gitlab/gogs already run a ssh server to implement git push .

That great. I can probably take a look at those as a starting point.

Does a Cloudron app need to do anything web-facing wise or could it just be a container running and doing nothing until you log onto it?

@DidierMalenfant it does need to pass a health check on port 80 when starting up, so it helps to have something listening there for a 200 response.

Might as well make it something useful. Stats or a dashboard, etc.

Thanks! I'm going to play around by modifying an existing app and see how far I get.
