Hi,
I am new to observium and I am trying to learn the "system".
Last week I developed a "app" that shows some status. The client side was super simple but it was somewhat cumbersome on the serverside (find all files to update and definitions etc).
This week I tried to use snmpd extend to display the same information. This was super simple both on the client and on the server side (adda custom oid) and it works with alerts!
My question is therefore in what circumstances are the "apps" useful? At least for my simple example I did not find any benefits of apps over using snmpd extend and a custom OID. Specially as configuring an app is more cumbersome (on the server side).
