Comment (by anarcat):

 I started working on [https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppetboard
 Puppetboard] is a "web interface to PuppetDB aiming to replace the
 reporting functionality of [https://github.com/sodabrew/puppet-dashboard
 Puppet Dashboard], except with a simpler interface, written in Python
 (instead of Ruby). It's also a "readonly" interface whereas the Puppet
 dashboard also acts as an ENC (External Node Classifier), which can assign
 classes to roles and so on.

 There's a planned Debian package for puppetboard in
 [https://bugs.debian.org/754796 debian bug#754796]. It requires a Python
 package from Debian testing (bullseye) which might be a blocker, and also
 ships with unaudited Javascript code (semantic-ui and tablesort). I have
 not audited the puppetboard code itself, but it's maintained by the
 voxpupuli community which we already somewhat trust with other modules.

 I'll see if my latest update brings any activity in the debian package.
 Hopefully we can set that up using neat little debian package instead of
 something too hacky.
