openrundev/openrun: README-based editorial guide

openrundev/openrun describes itself in the README as "Deployment platform for code-first internal tools. Deploy web apps declaratively, on a single-node or on Kubernetes, with OIDC/SAML auth and RBAC.". This article keeps to facts that can be checked in the repository. Stars, forks, and promotional badges are signals of attention, not proof of quality. Under "Overview", the README says: OpenRun is an Apache-2.0 licensed open source web app deployment platform for deploying internal tools. OpenRun makes it easy to declaratively deploy containerized web apps.. That establishes the project's stated boundary, not a production test.

The README's "Overview" section gives a useful starting point for deciding whether the project fits: Easily upgrade from single-node to Kubernetes, with no config changes required. If that problem is not yours, popularity is a poor reason to adopt it. Project names, commands, and component names are kept as written so a reader can return to the primary source without guessing at terminology. Another checkable README item is: Create and manage apps declaratively, through GitOps. It can shape a first test, but it does not replace testing in the intended environment.

The operating model is spread across sections such as "FAQ". The source evidence includes: > The main differences are: > > - OpenRun is declarative. After initial OpenRun setup. Instead of using CLI commands or UI operations, all operations including creating new app and updating config for existing apps can be doing by updating. This article does not turn missing architecture, performance, or security details into claims. A real deployment still needs a look at the repository layout, configuration files, and release history.

Start installation from the README's documented entry point. A command that can be checked in the source is: architecture-beta service client(internet)[Client] group host(server)[Node] service openrun(server)[OpenRun Server] in host service sqlite(database)[SQLite Metadata] in host group cm(server)[Docker or Podman] in host junction split in cm service app1(server)[App1] in cm service app2(server)[App2] in cm client:R --> L:openrun openrun:B --> T:sqlite openrun:R -- L:split split:T --> B:app1 split:B --> T:app2 When the README contains no runnable command, this article does not invent one. Open its "Overview" section and confirm system dependencies, default ports, and first-run initialization before using a public server.
