You might also be interested in Sandstorm, a service that only does the 'user 
apps' type of thing that nextcloud has. It has a strong focus on security (even 
over usability) and is big into capabilities much like Genode is. IMO. if there 
is a 'right way' to do a web app store, this is it.

Development on it is slow, as the business behind it failed and there's only a 
few volunteers left, and truthfully there's not enough apps for it to be that 
useful yet, but if you're into Sculpt it seems like that shouldn't be a problem 
;)
