I want Advice on App Packaging Best Practices

Contribute Room Apps packaging

Hey All,

I have been diving into app packaging & while it is exciting, it can feel a bit overwhelming at times I have read through some of the guides but I still feel such as I am missing some real world insights from people who have already been through this process; I want to know about the common mistakes beginners make when they start packaging apps for Yuno Host & how to avoid them.

I want to know about is the learning curve with different programming languages For example I came across some resources while doing my Golang Training & it made me think if certain languages give any kind of edge when working with packaging or automation scripts Does the language choice matter here or is it more about understanding the structure & rules of YunoHost

I want to hear your suggestions tips or even small hacks that can make the packaging journey a little smoother. Also i have check this Best practice for installing and using node in yunohost app packaging? still need advice.

Thank you.:slight_smile:

also would be nice to have some prompts to be used with mistral or similar

packaging in a standard way seems something the llms could help for

Using ai would be a mistake IMO. If you want to package an app just copy an app using the same techno. You should have a working packaged in no time. And then if you’re curious you can search the helper’s doc to see what is under the hood.

This Doc?

Wow, it’s been updated recently? A few months/weeks ago, I was looking for all this information… the packager section wasn’t as comprehensive!

Thanks, I’ll dive back into it!
