So I want to build a home server to use as a media server, and to back up my photos etc.

I am also currently doing an online course, and happen to spend some time at work as well as at home working on it. I don’t like using Google where I can help it, but I find google docs really useful. So I’m wondering if there’s an open source application that works essentially the same, but I could run off my own server? It would have to be web-based as I use Windows at work and can’t install new programs :/

edit: Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I’ve got quite a few leads to follow now, it should be fun!

    I hope to hell you don’t try to use the update button inside NC when running a docker image. The web updater is trash in any case, but in a docker that would be a real fuckup.

    You update docker with a docker pull and I’ve never had it fail. It just quietly upgrades the database and goes along it’s merry way.

      Nope, I updated with docker-compost stop/pull/up -d and suddenly everything was gone. Luckily I had a local copy of my files. Looks like updating trashed the volume I had mapped to my SSD.
