The OpenCloud server is released under Apache 2.0.
The project is thrilled to receive contributions in all forms.
Start hacking now, there are many ways to get involved such as:

Reporting issues or bugs

Please refer to our Contribution Guidelines if you want to get started.
Build OpenCloud
To build the backend, follow these instructions:
Generate the assets needed by e.g., the web UI and the builtin IDP

Then compile the opencloud binary

That will produce the binary opencloud/bin/opencloud. It can be started as a local test instance right away with a two step command:
opencloud/bin/opencloud init && opencloud/bin/opencloud server
This creates a server configuration (by default in $HOME/.opencloud) and starts the server.
For more setup- and installation options consult the Development Documentation.
Technology
Important information for contributors about the technology in use.
Authentication
The OpenCloud backend authenticates users via OpenID Connect using either an external IdP like Keycloak or the embedded LibreGraph Connect identity provider.
Database
The OpenCloud backend does not use a database. It stores all data in the filesystem. By default, the root directory of the backend is $HOME/.opencloud/.
