Open Source empowers you. Where a software-as-a-service might allow you to tweak and build connectors, with Nextcloud you can go all the way and enhance the server itself or apps from other authors with new API’s and core functionality.

The app uses tesseract-js in the browser in order to extract text from images (png, jpeg, tiff) and PDFs and saves the output file to the source folder in nextcloud. That for example enables you to search in it.

The DICOM Viewer allows the user to display and manipulate DICOM images with a streamlined sidebar and viewer, all without leaving Nextcloud. The sidebar parses DICOM files and displays all DICOM attributes, such as Patient ID, Patient Name, and Study Date/Time, in a convenient details panel. A critical search feature on the sidebar enables the user to quickly search for specific DICOM attributes.

Featured community app: Cospend
Nextcloud Cospend is a group/shared budget manager. It was inspired by the great IHateMoney.
You can use it when you share a house, when you go on vacation with friends, whenever you share money with others.
