Before installing
Metadatapp is still evolving as an open-source research infrastructure project. The install path is intended for people comfortable with self-hosted scientific software and source-code workflows.
- Use GitHub as the canonical source for repositories, issues, and install notes.
- Expect a self-hosted deployment model rather than a hosted SaaS product.
- Keep research data under your own infrastructure and access model.
- Contribute improvements to deployment recipes, adapters, schemas, and documentation.
