Web-based document editing without Nextcloud?

I think I’ve hit a wall here. I set up both Collabara (CODE) and OnlyOffice (documentserver), and either I’m doing it wrong, or both require Nextcloud to provide the document editing UI. I really don’t want to install Nextcloud. It feels like overkill.

Am I doing it wrong, or do both of those require Nextcloud.

How about cryptpad?

This looks like exactly what I want, plus extra security and privacy bits. I have no idea how it didn’t show up in my other searches. I’m going to give this one a shot.

That’s basically OnlyOffice with file storage. I’m not sure how that trumps Nextcloud

Isn’t Cryptpad just hosted onlyoffice?

You could also use them with www.filestash.app for example, but you still need something to actually store the files.

How about ONLYOFFICE web-apps?

Interesting! So it’s a separate container that connects to the documentserver?

That’s what it looks like. I’m gonna try it out today.

I wanted this first, but I’m being extremely impatient. This project was shelved a couple years ago, and they only just unshelved it last month. I don’t think they’ve released recently.

I’ll probably switch to this in a few months once they get that first release out.

Admittedly it’s been years, but this thread now has me firing off an updated instance :P

I’ve setup dufs to provide WebDAV file server, and then OpenOffice connected directly to it.
