    I use Radicale as a Docker container and it runs fine, with no maintenance apart from upgrading the image once in a while.

    Maybe try to explain the struggles you have had, since to my knowledge the posted options are the best and simplest once out there.

    For Android, you can use any of those on your server and DAVx5 on the phone. That makes it accessible to any calendar and contacts app systemwide. Some apps may also be able to connect directly, such as Etar.

      Doesn’t Etar use DAVx⁵? I would love direct synchronization but I don’t see a way to connect directly.

        I don’t personally use it so I don’t know if it depends on davx5, but you can add a CalDAV calendar directly in Etar settings.

        I think I was actually thinking of KashCal, which works with or without DAVx5 by design.

  • I use Baïkal for card and cal and Apache for webDAV, they provide all the features I need and were easy enough to set up, never tried alternatives.

    Radicale and Baikal are the most popular ones, but I wanted to share a few lesser known ones:

    • Etesync
    • Stalwart*

    *Yes, Stalwart is a full blown Email+Calendar solution, but it requires 1 Core & 100 mb of RAM. And you get both CalDav & the newer & superior JMAP protocol. It’s backed by NLNET NGIO and it has a proven track record.

    • This is good, I use Mailcow Dockerized and it uses 10% of one 3.7GHz core, but 2GB of RAM. Stalwart definitely seems better for low memory hosts. Seems to have one instance of rspamd for each mailbox, they and ofelia are the biggest users of RAM according to top

  • What troubles were you having with Baikal? I generally let mine just sit with a checked out tag from Git.

    For an unbelievably simple WebDAV server, you may want to look into copyparty.

    It depends on your needs, as it is not as full featured as some options out there, but it’s one Python file that you can just download and open. Boom. Fileserver.

    Would have said baikal if you haven’t alteady mentioned it. Can’t confirm that it’s a bitch to maintain, runs in my webjail for more than a year now. (Before I used nextcloud which IS a bitch in all matters…) The only hiccup was self induced, forgot to install it after php upgrade (FreeBSD, pkg is named php83-baikal for example).

    Specifically for webdav (Joplin sync) I use dave, though unmaintained no issues so far (internal network only, not web facing).

    Combine with mail and use SoGo. Foss and works nearly out of the box.

        Looking for a simple card/cal/WebDAV server that runs in docker.

        Or maybe just because there is nothing simple in hosting a mail server for having card and caldav.
