This repo is intended for anyone who wishes to self host Nextcloud in docker containers and has been developed based on several tutorials I found online. After cloning the repo for the first time, you'll need to run the init.sh script to create the required folders.

folders required

1. data
   • app ( folder to store Nextcloud app )
   • sql ( folder for the mariadb container to store database files )
   • config ( easy accces to the config.php file for nextcloud )
   • theme ( theme folder, which I don't use but it's there for anyone who wants to )

sudo apt install docker docker-compose
