I got it. But explain this to people who are spoiled by $59 themes :)

More themes that you can choose from -> more Kirby users -> stability -> more users coming from other solutions etc…

It's an entirely different target audience. Kirby is a tool that's designed mostly for developers, and not really for end users. There's no one-click install, there's no pressing a button to install plugins. And that's by design.

Well, in fact it was two clicks install :) I’ve downloaded it, unzipped into a folder and with PHP running I was ready… No Nodejs and React needed. These are so painful to maintain.

So Kirby is really nice to run.

And I understand your point.
