I was browsing the Sandstorm.IO app store to see if they got something that I needed, and I found something very interesting. I wonder what secret hero we have to thank for that. It appears to be running 0.8.2 according to the logs. For whoever wants to play with it, heres a link to the sandstorm demo. From there install it from the app store.
I met the Sandstorm team when I was in Paolo Alto a few months ago, and we briefly talked about NodeBB and getting that on to their platform. I'm glad to see they've given us a shot, very cool people!
Out of curiosity, how did they react about NodeBB?

Palo Alto. Paolo Alto would be quite different 
So you install it on a sandstorm deployment and add all your plugins, themes, widgets, etc?
Is there a team keeping it up to date?
What's the benefit of using Sandstorm? Security?
@AtonB117 Sandstorm aims to provide security where as example a app fails to deliver it. NodeBB on Sandstorm isn't meant for public use and rather as a internal board for a company to use then as a public forum. There is not much to customize, actually there's nothing to customize besides some of your own account settings like avatar and whatnot. The build in Sandstorm accounts play in effect for this. So you won't need to make a user and can just share the sharable link with someone to give them access to the NodeBB grain, hope that helps.
@Kowlin got it, thanks!
@AtonB117 I don't mind giving you a grain to play with ;), infact here have one regardless

@Kowlin Ha, thanks; but I'm up to my gills in configuring servers right now!
