OxiCloud – lightweight self-hosted cloud

OxiCloud is a self-hosted cloud platform for files, calendars and contacts. It is designed for self-hosters, home labs and small teams that want a smaller operational stack than broad collaboration suites.

The project takes a standards-first approach and combines a Rust backend with a web interface. Its focus is on practical personal-cloud functions and interoperability rather than reproducing a large plugin ecosystem.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

  • Web file management with multi-file uploads, folders, previews, thumbnails, favourites, recent items and trash.
  • Chunked uploads improve reliability when transferring larger files.
  • Content deduplication can reduce storage consumed by duplicate data.
  • WebDAV provides file access from compatible clients including GNOME Files and KDE Dolphin.
  • CalDAV and CardDAV provide calendar and contact access for standards-compatible clients.
  • OpenID Connect single sign-on can integrate OxiCloud with an existing identity provider, while local authentication uses Argon2id password hashing.
  • User quotas, roles, shared links and password security controls are built in.
  • Search, previews and metadata help locate and inspect stored content.
  • WOPI integration allows compatible Collabora Online or ONLYOFFICE servers to edit documents from OxiCloud.
  • A REST API is available for integrations and automation.
  • Deployment options include a self-contained binary, containers, a Helm chart and a Nix module.
  • Desktop sync applications, dedicated mobile apps and end-to-end encryption remain outside the current feature set.
