<![CDATA[Grist | The Evolution of Spreadsheets]]>Hi, I think some of you may have heard of this app before: Grist [https://www.getgrist.com/](link url)

. It's like Airtable + spreadsheet alternative. I have used the cloud version for a while now for serious work, and I like it so far.
They adopt an open-core model: [https://github.com/gristlabs/grist-core](link url)

There is a functional docker image available. For making it public it needs a sign in services which I think Cloudron already has established? Perhaps abit more work than I would imagine for Cloudron team, but it might be totally worth it.
Would be lovely to see such app coming over to Cloudron in addition to Typebot. These two are quite polished as it is.

Thanks! 🙂

I have published grist as unstable now. The repo moved to https://git.cloudron.io/packages/grist-app

We have to get grist working with pyodide somehow.

BTW, is https://www.nestybox.com/ dead? Gives me bad cert error.

In the meantime, I am trying to make some sense of gVisor . If we want this, it will require support from the platform via some extension to the manifest.

Thanks for taking a look at it

Just trying to get AppFlowy and ZeroNet out the door.
Will then re-check Grist package

Pretty sure it is pyodide from memory

GRIST_SANDBOX_FLAVOR can apparently be pyodide or gvisor. Not sure which one we have to use, but the Dockerfile has some python install, so we are going for pyodide is it?

When I create a new spreadsheet , clicking on a cell throws some error . Do you see the same?

Let me know any issues.
Not sure I will use much myself so might not encounter them.

I packaged because there seemed to be demand by others. Hope it helps.

Grist for Cloudron now shared.

Git repo : https://git.cloudron.io/timconsidine/cloudron-gristcore
Built docker image : tcmbp132021/cloudron-gristcore:v1.1.0
Available on hosted CCAI or use your own private CCAI-P (remember to pull the latest master catalogue

“Complete package” ?
As I understand it, the open source web version is called grist-core. Don’t know why “core”.
It’s probably the same as your docker-compose version.
Maybe the SaaS hosted or thick clients have extra.

Disclaimer : I suffer from PSSD (post spreadsheet stress disorder) so not an expert on Grist and not used it heavily. But saw there was a demand for it -and it looks cool.

After initially not finding Grist on Cloudron, i ended up deploying it on another VPS, using a Portainer/docker-compose based setup.

Would be great if the complete Grist package can be managed within Cloudron itself!

Grist-core now packaged as a custom app.

I will add it to CCAI if requested
(don't take this the wrong way but needs a request - sometimes there is initial appetite for an app and it dissipates over time and this is quite an old Wishlist item)

Out of curiosity what constitutes an app being selected or not? 27 upvotes (at time of writing), a lot of engagement and views, clearly a very good fit for the Cloudron platform (which already has Baserow, Nocodb, Directus etc).. When a platform already has Docker support does that make it more or less difficult to get it onto Cloudron? I would assume it is easier?

@girish @nebulon
Maybe you'd like to comment? What are the chances we'll see Grist on Cloudron soonish? 🙏
