Web Extensions is a collection of community and supplementary extensions for the ownCloud Web frontend that, for various reasons, are maintained outside of the main web repository. It includes extensions for draw.io integration, JSON file viewing, file casting, advanced search, photo enhancements, file importing, progress bars, external sites embedding and file unzipping -- each deployable as a standalone web app within oCIS.
This repository is part of the ownCloud Infinite Scale (oCIS) ecosystem. The extensions integrate with the ownCloud Web frontend and can be individually enabled in oCIS deployments.
Web Extensions are available on Docker Hub.

The Kiteworks Open Source Program Office, operating under the ownCloud brand, launched on May 5, 2026, to steward the open source ecosystem around ownCloud's products. The OSPO ensures transparent governance, license compliance, community health, and sustainable collaboration between the open source community and Kiteworks, which acquired ownCloud in 2023.

For questions about the OSPO or licensing, contact ospo@kiteworks.com.
The OSPO is driving a strategic relicensing of ownCloud repositories toward the Apache License 2.0, following the Apache Software Foundation's third-party license policy.
Individual repositories will migrate as their audit is completed. The LICENSE file in each repo reflects its current license status (not the target).
Current license: AGPL-3.0 (Category X per Apache policy -- cannot be included in Apache-2.0 works).
Migration prerequisites for this repository:
- CLA/DCO coverage: All past contributors must have signed agreements permitting relicensing
- Copyleft dependency audit: All AGPL/GPL dependencies must be replaced or isolated
- KDE heritage review: Any code with KDE-era copyrights requires legal analysis
- Complete relicensing: AGPL-3.0 is a strong copyleft license; migration requires full relicensing of all files, not just a header change
