Nextcloud on Cresdock

Nextcloud is a full self-hosted file-sync and collaboration suite — the closest self-hosted match to Google Drive or Dropbox, with apps for every platform.

What Cresdock sets up for you

Gets its own web address and a generated admin password on install — shown once on the app card, so there's no shared or default credential.
Configures itself automatically on first boot (admin account, database, trusted domain) — you sign in and it's ready, no setup wizard to run through by hand.

Installing it

Pick it from the catalog
From your dashboard, choose Nextcloud and click Install — no Dockerfile, no compose file.
Wait a couple of minutes
The panel pulls the image, seeds its configuration, and starts it up.
Open it from your dashboard
Your access details are on the app's card, and you can start, stop, update or remove it with a click, any time.

Common questions

Do I need to know Docker to run Nextcloud?

No — it's a one-click install through the panel, same as every app in the catalog.

Is my Nextcloud data safe during an update?

Yes. Updates and reinstalls change Nextcloud's own configuration only — never your downloaded files or media library, by design.

Can I remove Nextcloud later without losing my setup?

Removing it can keep its configuration for a future reinstall — you choose when you remove it.
