    for a community custom app ...

    You raise an interesting point. Just because it is a community app does not mean it can be any base image. Community apps should be compliant to Cloudron standards. IMHO. If not, you might as well set up a separate VPS and deploy via docker compose, why have the hassle of cloudron compliance.
    I do see the other view point, I just don't agree with it.

    Rebuilding all of that on top of cloudron/base would have been a multi-week project

    I started from scratch using a cloudron base image, none of your code, different direction, at 17:16, took 2 hours out for supper & TV, then returned to the app. 1st working version at 21:08. So roughly 2 hours.

    I'm not saying that the app is fully built. But to get a Home Screen loaded is significant. I don't know the app, so not sure what to do next. That might take another couple hours.

    Not seeking an argument, I just don't agree that your approach to build from upstream image is correct.

    @timconsidine That is fantastic, Tim!
    I was just trying a version 2 using the Docker Compose approach, but if you have managed to do it on the Cloudron base, that would be much better.
