Description:
Have you ever wanted to develop a Nextcloud app, but do not have any experience with PHP as required for traditional Nextcloud apps? To reach a wider developer community and expand what Nextcloud apps can do, Nextcloud has introduced AppAPI, a new app ecosystem that allows you to build an External App (“ExApp”) in your favorite programming language.
This workshop explains what AppAPI and ExApps are and walks through a tutorial demonstrating how to develop a simple ExApp in Python.
A GitHub account is required for participation, as the workshop uses GitHub Codespaces.
Target Audience:
- Developers of all skill levels
