A large number of apps have been added to truecharts recently which is great. But, I'm finding that quite a few of the new ones either aren't working (auroria-files, genea, quiz-game, reactive-resume, tracks, ...) or require unique configuration steps (for example).
It can be pretty time-consuming installing them to find out if they work and then trying to troubleshoot. Some are obvious, like reactive-resume and genea just don't give an "Open" link or reveal any used ports. But, others like tracks look like they could work. It looks like it needs a database and has fields for one. But, connecting it to an instance of postgresql shows successful reads (so good connection) but from a still empty database.
Anyway, as a solution I'd like to propose some kind of "Verified Working + Notes" list so that users can know if an app simply isn't ready or if it needs special steps to make work.
I'm happy to set up a thread for others to pitch in on (or some other format like a public spreadsheet). I just don't want to step on any toes and do this without some public support/interest. Thoughts?
