The current tooling has some deficiencies:

• It is slow
• It clones a bunch of app repositories
• it uses appstreamcli convert instead of using the xml directly. The yaml representation has less data (no link to artifacts).
• It requires the use of the SUSE ci images instead of the websites ci images with php installed.

• The data should also be stored in a database instead of parsing and reading json files for each requests.
