App Launchpad supports the following application sources.

  • Custom Catalogs
  • Bitnami applications catalog available in the VMware Marketplace
  • Helm Chart Repositories

To use custom catalogs as application sources, create the catalogs in the AppLaunchpad provider organization in VMware Cloud Director, upload application VMs and vApps to the catalogs, and publish the catalogs.

To use applications from the Bitnami catalog, get an account with permissions to access the VMware Marketplace and import the applications to App Launchpad.

To import container applications from Helm Chart repositories, create and configure the repository, and import the applications to App Launchpad.
