Cloudron.io's approach seems far more easier for developers to adopt. Every webapp runs in a Docker container and auth/user management is delegated to a single-sign-on service. But it's not open-source.

Cloudron is definitely easier to build and integrate apps for than Sandstorm. And it is open source now, although automatic updates require a license. However, Sandstorm’s security model is a step beyone what something Docker based can offer.
