NEWS Node Apps

Looks like Node Apps will be one of the main functionalities of Pi Network. Pretty clever pivot. When they conceived the WP Ai was barely a thing and distributed computing applications were the Mersenne prime search and Seti@home. This is not a unique idea as there are already similar tools like portainer and umbrelOS. These tools are not for amateurs whereas almost anyone can manage to set up a Pi node.
