Package GPrime for sandstorm.io [a self-hostable web productivity suite.] #21

Open JonTheNiceGuy opened 7 years ago

Hi,

Please consider packaging GPrime for Sandstorm [1]. Sandstorm is a obsessively security focused self-hosting platform for x64 Linux distributions. It uses Linux containers.

It also provides unique sub-domains per user, per "grain" (an instance of an application). It is, in my mind, the future of self-hosting.

Packaging without taking advantage of sandstorm's key security features should be relatively easy, if you follow the porting guide [2] but it's probably worth talking to the team [3][4] about how to make some slight changes to work to the Sandstorm model, and they are currently offering bounties on getting new apps into the sandstorm system. Again, it's probably worth talking to the team about it!

Please note, I discovered GPrime by raising a Feature Request against Gramps, and this project was mentioned when I followed a particular rabbit hole in a thread of conversation :) https://gramps-project.org/bugs/view.php?id=9991
