# Perfect Nextcloud Installer
This is a script to setup the perfect Nextcloud Installation on a vanilla Debian 12 server. It is still a work in progress but will get your next Nextcloud installation 99% of the way to being perfect.
This is a script to setup the perfect Nextcloud Installation on a vanilla Debian 12 server. It will get your next Nextcloud installation 99.9999% of the way to being perfect. All that is missing is default_phone_region, default_language and default_locale... see below image of what a fresh Install looks like on Admin Screen (the place where Nextcloud bitches about stuff)...
No fiddling with Docker or navigating your way through the terminal. Download script to server, run script, enter same basic information, wait about 20 minutes, and you can connect to your server and logon. A true bare metal install so you have 100% control of everything on the server.

Instructions to start the process is a little further down this document.
> It has only been tested on Debian 12, but it should work on most Debian based distros. A vanilla server is required (nothing but Debian core and ssh installed).
I will be adding more functionality to, such as doing the last niggly settings that Nextcloud complains about as well as setup CronJobs.
I will be adding default_phone_region, default_language and default_locale functionality in the near future...
I also want to add the ability for the script to detect an existing Nextcloud install and only do the system updates to bring your server inline with the latest requirements (ie new PHP version or additional modules).
And eventually I will add the ability for you to install multiple Nextclouds on the same server.

I am often active on the Subreddit r/NextCloud and I keep track of what most people struggle with when it comes to installing NextCloud. Also, I run a hosting company and we offer hosting for small to medium Nextcloud installations, so I install Nextcloud often. A lot of people actually contact me directly on Reddit u/thisiszeev to pay me to do the installation for them.
