containers/marketplace — nginx:alpine app (standard drop-in contract:
config + tagged compose + icon + install hook) whose docroot serves BOTH
halves of the marketplace: the signed catalog channel tree (index.json /
payloads, published into data/<channel>/ by the release tools) and a
self-contained client-rendered browse site over the same file (search,
category chips, trust badges, copyable 'libreportal app add <slug>' —
no third-party assets, no backend, no build step). The official
marketplace is an instance of this app; self-hosting one = installing it
and pointing CFG_RELEASE_BASE_URL at it. Boxes only ever trust the
minisign signature on the catalog, never the website.
New generic gating convention: CFG_<APP>_DEV_ONLY=true keeps an app out
of the App Center grid unless Developer Mode is on (CFG_DEV_MODE, the
same flag the **DEV** config-field filter uses); an installed dev-only
app always stays visible. The marketplace app is the first user.
Cache policy: catalog/channel manifests no-cache; payloads short
revalidating cache (same-id re-publish); version-pinned release
artifacts immutable.
