The Nextcloud appstore is a website (and there is also a tool within Nextcloud server itself). I find the website difficult to navigate and wanted to start a discussion about it. Links are to their respective github feature requests.
apps.nextcloud.com
I find myself confused by the appstore, because it has become cluttered and confusing to navigate:
What is supported on your installed release?
What is supported if your upgrade?
A few refinements that could help:
- Filter by supported version
-
Do not display apps without a current version release
-
All apps in Nextcloud 24as opposed toAll apps
-
-
Filter out apps older than a certain version
- example: Filter out last supported in Version 17 and older from
All apps.
- example: Filter out last supported in Version 17 and older from
-
Display visible ratings by their Nextcloud version rather than displaying all ratings.
- So visible app ratings can coincide with a recent release.
-
Identify when an app requires external dependencies for installation.
- Quite a few require additional installation and configuration to setup.
Just some thoughts to get further discussion going. Not exhaustive by any stretch. Thankfully, the store works okay as-is. Thanks for reading.
