feature-request App Catalog - Bookmark or Favorite Apps for install later or as batch, and add notes

[MrFox]

When browsing the catalog of apps I come across some that I would like to install at a future date when I have finished setting up and working with the current apps I have.

Could a bookmark, favorite or tag feature be added to the app catalog for easy finding in the future?

I would also like to add some private internal text notes about the various apps in the console, like: why it interested me, when I am hoping to install it, when I added it, some quick reminders, any issues I had with the app.

 

Ways I could see this growing later (dreams):

• Batch installing all bookmarked apps, or batch uninstall
• Sharing the bookmarked apps list with others, so they can quickly setup the same configuration
• Export notes and app details for documentation (or even just a good copy paste format)
• Estimate resources needed for bookmarked apps (better planning before pressing install, or evaluating what the performance impact of several apps is)
• Maintain multiple bookmark lists for quick config changes
• Instead of bookmarks it could be a tag system for various actions, such as deployment on a cluster of HexOS machines, turning on and off batches of apps, in multi-admin scenarios they can be used to propose apps for approved install

 

Issues I could foresee:

• People might abuse the notes features and literally put account names and passwords in the notes box
• Resource calculation could be difficult
• Could introduce a fair amount of complexity when the team is still trying to get to a good stable long term state
