        Curious... doesn't Cloudron itself pretty much negate the need for Portainer? All Cloudron apps and services are just containers we manipulate through the Cloudron UI. I guess though Portainer can be hooked up to a remote server, right? Just genuinely curious on the use-case for this one. I've used Portainer before and liked it (it's how I was managing my services before I found Cloudron), just not sure though why it'd need to be packaged as an app in Cloudron.

          I agree with @d19dotca that Portainer as a whole would be largely redundant in Cloudron. It does raise an interesting use case though: how to run Docker images independent from the Cloudron packaging regime while still using the Cloudron machine.

            I worry about scope creep. Cloudron has limited dev time. It should be focused on it's core competencies. Asking for things so far out of scope of what Cloudron is aiming to be.

              This would presumably solve the problem I have identified here:

                @christiaan It would not. Portainer is just a UI for Docker so you can avoid some command-line entries. Portainer does not setup its own instance of Docker. The recommendations to you in the previous threads are to run your containers on your own instance that isn’t managed by Cloudron for the best reliability. This app would not achieve that for you.

                  @d19dotca okay gotcha. While you were replying I managed to get my own instance and container up and running, thanks. 👍
