You can try it out by running:

nix run github:pbek/nixhostforge

Tech Stack: Go, Nix, NixOS, Vue

NextBackup

NextBackup (formerly OwnBackup) is the simple database backup solution for your ownCloud 8.1+ and Nextcloud (up to Nextcloud 20) installation.

Its main purpose is to provide an easy solution to restore the tables of an app in case you accidentally corrupted the data or did anything you regret later.

Beware: This application depends on private (now partly deprecated) ownCloud / Nextcloud API and only works as good as this API!
