Hi Barry,

as a developer you might be interested in 
https://github.com/ralflang/docker-horde-php7 if you are into containers 
or mrubinsk's vagrant profiles.

To get started, you would run a script which makes a "Myapp" template 
from skeleton.

Then, you need to add a snippet to either horde/conf/registry.d or 
registry.local.php

<?php
$this->applications['myapp'] = array(
         'name' => 'My App',
         'provides' => array('mycapability')
);

To actually have myapp show up in the topbar, you also need to generate 
the conf.php from conf.xml

Best go to /admin/config and run the dialog.

I haven't tried out if the script also works with the most recent 
changes to the horde git setup. Otherwise you need to manually or 
automatically change all file names like "skeleton" to "myapp", all 
occurences of "skeleton" to "myapp", "Skeleton" to "Myapp" and 
"SKELETON" to "MYAPP", which is tedious.

Or your application will have the name "Skeleton", which is not really 
desirable ;)

Let's please switch to the "dev" list and leave "horde" list to 
administrators and the general public
