@accrescent@infosec.exchange About your stance of third party repos.
Even if this would not be allowed for end users, documentation on how to change the default hardcoded repository to our own before recompiling accrescent and how to generate the metadata for a selfhosted repo would be important imho

@eskuero@mstdn.io We appreciate you mentioning this. Unfortunately, we don't currently have the capacity to develop and maintain official documentation for how to run Accrescent independently. It would also be very difficult for a third party to keep up with running Accrescent right now since the backend is constantly changing and often requires manual intervention to update which requires special knowledge of how Accrescent works.
We may consider supporting documentation once Accrescent is more stable.
