Install and run EuroOffice. Integrates with Nextcloud. Based off OnlyOffice. Works really well.


That makes sense. What is weird though is the dev wrote the app for multiple platforms, including Debian, RPM-based and a few others. So it not like it is one of those ‘compile only from source and good luck to yah’ kinda apps.
But thank you for the response. I do appreciate you taking the time!


I too use CachyOS. But i am very new to it. Why are we more ‘protected’ than straight up Arch users? I like Cachy, but have a gripe with how some applications behave, especially Java based Apps, that have a native installer in AUR (not building from source). I have one application that is built in JAVA, and the text is so freaking small, all the pop-up windows open on the wrong place which makes the pointer inaccurate etc. But I digress. The question was more why should we feel more relaxed than the Arch guys and gals?


As others have mentioned : Openproject. You can intergrate with Nextcloud to keep files stored in a file manager, and keep project management side lightweight.
That is a very valid point, thank you. I saw that too. I just don’t want to go PaperCut just yet, because I honestly don’t feel it is worth the cost. I would rather have us spend the money on proper hardware for our hosting capabilities.
Thank you for your response.


You are correct. I mistook your comment to refer to people in general, rather than trained professional coders. So indeed, you are correct.


So this is going to invoke a multitude of downvotes, but here goes.
I will give you an example. I can read a bit of python code, not the advanced stuff, but enough to understand to a large degree what the code does. Last week, I had the need to add a button to Netbox that will download a multitude of device configs that are being rendered via config templates. This use case helps a whole department apply configs, without having to create them by hand.
I knew Netbox has a very powerful plugins ecosystem. The way the base code is written grants the capability of adding any type of plugin you might need in your unique environment. I used Claude to create this plugin for me. I wrote a very specific spec file, told it to utilise the already built pynetbox plugin and ensure it uses nothing fancy that is not sustainable. It created the plugin, helped me with pip installing it, and I deployed it on my dev environment where I tested it extensively.
My alternative to using claude: Asking our internal development team to write something like this. I would need to wait 3 weeks to even get a spot on their meeting for the request, just to then be told their backlog is full with customer code and they won’t be able to help. This plugin will help our support team with fewer calls, because the configs are accurately built according to the source of truth (Netbox) and will need less human input. So in the greater scheme of the company, that is a net positive.
What I will do when Netbox updates, is update my dev environment, install the plugin, and test it. If something broke, I will troubleshoot it, of course I will be using Claude with error logs etc, then update the plugin code to work on the new netbox. Is this ideal? Probably not. Is it the only way to get this done? Maybe not either. Is it all I can do at this very moment? Yes.
My specialist fields are the lower levels. Hardware, hypervisors and setting up VMs + System Software. I need code from time to time to get something functional done. I don’t write whole systems with Claude, that is just ridiculously naive. But small pieces of functional code that solves a single small problem, I honestly don’t understand the problem with that.
My 2c.


CTRL + W? Why did I only learn about this today? About 20 years too late! Thank you.


Does each user have their own account? Or can anyone and everyone see all the pdfs? Or are the pdfs only stored for the duration of the browser session?
IIRC the first release was supposed to be early June. Have not checked. No tutorial yet, maybe I should write one. But you can basically follow ANY OnlyOffice install procedure talking about Docker image, and replace the onlyoffice with euro-office, and it should just work.
https://github.com/Euro-Office/DocumentServer -> Run this to get the server going.
https://github.com/Euro-Office/eurooffice-nextcloud -> Run this to install it into Nextcloud.
