The marketplace

Templates and plugins for voidbase, written by the people who use it, at marketplace.voidbase.cloud. Your code stays in your repository; a listing points at it and records what our checks found on the day it was added.

What works, and what does not

It is early, and the useful thing to say about an early marketplace is what it cannot do. Nothing below is a roadmap item dressed up as a feature.

• You can list a template, and you can start from one. Starting is GitHub's own Use this template button, which clones the repository into your account. That is the entire install mechanism and it is somebody else's.
• You cannot install a plugin. pb_plugins does not exist yet: no format, no loader, nothing to install into. Plugin submissions are open anyway, and that page explains why.
• There are no accounts and nothing to pay. No sign-in, no download counts, no ranking, and no way to charge for anything yet.

The registry is a file

Every listing lives in registry/templates.json or registry/plugins.json in a public repository, and the site is prerendered from those files. A listing therefore arrives as a commit: readable, reviewable, revertable, and arguable. That is deliberate, and it is the same reason the rest of voidbase keeps configuration in git rather than in a database.

Being listed is not an endorsement. The audit is a first pass and not a guarantee, it looks at one commit on one day, and it never runs the code. Read anything before you run it.
