Publish a FreedomBox image that works fully offline
FreedomBox currently downloads applications from the internet on demand. This can be a problem when FreedomBox is required to be deployed in remote areas without internet connectivity or during natural disasters. In such a situation, a FreedomBox with all applications deployed would have to be first created and then deployed in the remote region, which can be a very time-consuming process. It took me 6 hours the last time I did it when using a fast internet connection.
Create a FreedomBox offline edition that has all the packages already available offline. One way of doing this is installing all the apps and keeping them disabled.
