Ask HN: Free and Open Source clone of a Web App. you wish existed?
There are lot of great Open Source Web. Apps out there. A lot are free, some aren't. Do you ever wish for a FOSS version of a web app. that you use a lot but doesn't have an open source version or clone ?
- ladberg 9y agoI'd like to see a FOSS service that's functionally identical to Google Drive. Like, I could use my own server (or pay for hosting) to get the same functionality and hold all my stuff. Of course, stuff like this exists, but I don't think any of it is as good (yet). The main things I would need: - Great spreadsheets - Simultaneous editing (can send a link to someone and immediately have them edit without needing to log in) - Cloud-based (I can log in with two-step from any public computer) - Shared folders I love G Suite but kind of hate having to rely on Google, and it would be nice to host my own.

- kull 9y agoA good and simple Hacker news clone / forum. All options out there are just full of useless options that will take me longer to remove than code my own simple forum from the scratch. I know there is HN code available but I want it in php or Python, so more mainstream developers can work with it.
