`initI18n` runs in the client `init()` hook and blocks the first render. For every non-English user it awaited TWO locale dictionaries back to back — the active locale AND `en` (the fallback) — so first paint waited on two sequential round-trips + JSON parses. Now it awaits only the active locale, then warms `en` in the background (non-blocking). `t()` only consults `dicts.en` for keys the active locale is missing, and most call sites already pass an inline English fallback, so the deferred `en` doesn't change what users see; when it arrives `dicts.en` is reactive, so any key that fell through re-renders. English users are unchanged (no second fetch was ever needed). Net: non-English startup drops from two blocking locale fetches to one, halving the i18n payload on the critical path (the server already serves these JSONs brotli/gzip-compressed via the global CompressionLayer, so the wire cost was already small — this removes the extra round-trip + parse from first paint). Validated: new unit test (initI18n resolves while the en fetch is still pending, en is kicked off in the background, and a key missing from the active locale falls back once en lands) → 47 frontend tests green; npm run check; prod build.

A fast self-hosted cloud for people who want files, calendars, contacts, and office editing without dragging a heavy stack behind them.

If OxiCloud saves you setup time, RAM, or complexity, give it a star. If something is missing, ask for a feature or request a docs improvement.
Why People Try OxiCloud
OxiCloud is aimed at self-hosters, home labs, and small teams who want the useful parts of a cloud suite without the operational drag of a traditional PHP stack.
What pulls people in:
- Standard protocols first: WebDAV, CalDAV, and CardDAV are built in
- Useful product surface already there: files, previews, sharing, trash, search, favorites, and recent items
- Modern auth and admin basics: OIDC/SSO, quotas, roles, and shared links
- Better interoperability: native desktop and mobile clients work without custom sync tooling for basic access
- Lower deployment friction: Docker Compose, environment-based configuration, Helm chart, and Nix module
OxiCloud is not trying to mirror the full plugin ecosystem of Nextcloud. It is designed for a smaller stack, fast startup, and standards-based interoperability.
Quick Start
Docker Compose
Requires Docker and Docker Compose.
git clone https://github.com/AtalayaLabs/OxiCloud.git
cd OxiCloud
cp example.env .env
# If users will access OxiCloud through a domain or reverse proxy,
# set OXICLOUD_BASE_URL in .env before the first login.
docker compose up -d
Open http://localhost:8086.
Run from source
Requires Rust 1.93+ and PostgreSQL.
git clone https://github.com/AtalayaLabs/OxiCloud.git
cd OxiCloud
cp example.env .env
# If PostgreSQL runs on your host instead of Docker, update both
# OXICLOUD_DB_CONNECTION_STRING and DATABASE_URL to use localhost:5432.
cargo run

Help Shape OxiCloud
If you want OxiCloud to get better faster, use the repo like a product feedback loop, not just a code dump.
- Give it a star if you want more people to discover the project: Star OxiCloud
- Propose missing functionality: feature request
- Point out confusing onboarding or weak docs: documentation request
- Report breakage or regressions: bug report
- Build it with us: CONTRIBUTING.md
The best feature ideas usually come from real deployment pain. If you hit friction, open an issue and describe the workflow you want.
Architecture and Deployment
OxiCloud follows a clean, hexagonal architecture so protocol handlers, business logic, and infrastructure stay separated.
- Backend: Rust + Axum
- Database: PostgreSQL
- Configuration: environment variables
- Default deployment: Docker Compose
- Additional packaging: Helm chart and Nix module
Architecture docs: internal architecture · caching architecture · database transactions · storage safety
Configuration and Integrations
Start with example.env. The most important settings are:
OXICLOUD_BASE_URLfor reverse proxies, domains, and external accessOXICLOUD_DB_CONNECTION_STRINGfor PostgreSQLOXICLOUD_OIDC_ENABLEDand related settings for SSOOXICLOUD_WOPI_ENABLEDand discovery URL for office editingMIMALLOC_PURGE_DELAY=0for lower idle RSS in constrained environments
