Looks like everything is free so far and the paid options are coming later?

  Please see my reply here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19312226 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19312226 TLDR: Vendors can add licenses now. Billing coming later.

On Firefox, the details button does not do anything. I.e create droplet -> images -> marketplace -> app details

The only true benefit turnkey 1-click software truly offers me is not having to worry about configuration and backups, but ironically I always find myself too worried about backups or data integrity to use these types of platforms. Do you have or are you planning to have a centralized way for these apps to perform and restore backups or is that handled by each partner themselves?

  All of these images are deployed directly onto a Droplet which has access to all standard features including backups [0]. 0: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/images/backups/overview/ https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/images/backups/overview/

  See cloudron (which is funnily a 1-click in DO) which solves this

A decent droplet is capable of doing a lot of things, the one-click install seems to be per droplet. I'm not so sure how multiple on-clicks apps work in one droplet, or can it work at all (how to avoid conflicts of automation of multiple robots?)
