If it is for kodi, then it aleady has an "app store" - go to settings|addons, it is there.
If it is for the OS, ie applications outside kodi, then every linux has a packaging system - what is new about this one?
By the way I am neutral on this and wish Sam the very best for it. I am merely curious about the "app store".

I spent $200 and did NOT receive any Vero for free or review nor has Sam asked me to promote his product nor paid me to advertise his product. I just feel strongly about the product and the passion of the project and support it. I thought sharing it here was appropriate if it's not I apologize.(2014-11-30, 03:46)sraue Wrote: i think the same, its simply Kodis addon system used to install own (binary) addons, the same OpenELEC does for years. its will be no surprise for me

Its posts like these that make users very wary of even going anywhere near a CuBox, ones with a seemingly hidden agenda that make a rudimental mistake of dismissing all the problems listed in detail in previous posts.
Granted, Vero has not been released by Sam yet so the product cannot be judged at this time.
