Sounds cool but I think the WordPress implementation is TERRIBLE: it depends on a WordPress fork that is completely outdated, instead of downloading an up-to-date fresh archive.

I agree -- the current WordPress package needs work. Thank you for trying it and looking into it!

Community-wise, one thing we're going to need, as Sandstorm grows, is an ecosystem of app package maintainers. Part of what we're hoping is that more developers of the apps themselves will maintain the Sandstorm ports, like Audrey Tang is maintaining the EtherCalc port.

Tech-wise, one thing we're going to need is a solid story for how Sandstorm packages will easily stay up to date with the latest changes as the upstream author releases new updates.

I work on+for Sandstorm, and I'm also a Debian developer. Debian is not a shining example with regard to either of the above, and I'm sure we can do even better at Sandstorm.

Is it possible to run arbitrary Docker containers? If so, that could be a solution.
