Nextcloud App Template

A starting point for building Nextcloud apps the Conduction way: a manifest-first Vue 2 frontend rendered by CnAppRoot, an OpenRegister data layer, a Dashboard widget, an admin settings panel, an AI Chat Companion tool provider, and the full quality pipeline — clone it, rename it, ship it.

What you start with

Born docs-ready, born OpenRegister-wired.

Clone the template and you already have a Dashboard widget, a manifest-driven UI, an admin settings panel, an MCP tool provider, and this very documentation site — rename, rewire, ship.

Dashboard widget, ready to copy

The template ships a working ExampleWidget — PHP IWidget class, webpack entry, and a NcDashboardWidget renderer. Three files plus two registration points; rename and replace the data.

{
"pages": [ … ],
"menu": [ … ],
"dependencies": [ … ]
}

Manifest-first, no per-page Vue

Pages, navigation, and dependencies live in src/manifest.json. CnAppRoot reads the manifest at boot and renders index / detail / dashboard / settings pages — you only write a Vue file for type: "custom".

Admin settings + AI companion

An admin settings panel wired through NcAppSettingsDialog, an OpenRegister-backed settings register, and an ExampleToolProvider that exposes the app over MCP to the in-app AI Chat Companion.
