I went down a somewhat similar path a while back. I liked some of the functionality OwnCloud/NextCloud offered, but it seemed like there were just more and more php projects bolted on and I was worried about it from a security perspective. Sandstorm.io had just come out at the time and it felt like the "right" way to run a bunch of separate apps, so I built a webdav server/UI[0] as a sandstorm app that could replace OwnCloud and still use the OwnCloud client apps. It was a bit of a mixed bag--it worked, but I quickly discovered that DAV has _tons_ of quirks and the OwnCloud clients had all sorts of interesting/semidocumented behavior. If I had had more time on my hands I would have probably built my own set of clients and had an easier time. [0] https://github.com/mnutt/davros https://github.com/mnutt/davros
