Cal.com (was Calendso) - Calendly Alternative

[ajtatum]

I'll have to take a look at those alternatives, Cal.com was the first open-source one I found and had up and running to test out and found it pretty awesome and could replace a WordPress plugin. The biggest downside to it that I found was that it's customization is limited. As an example, if I wanted to change the colors, I'd have to create a theme and open source it, etc... kind of a hassle. However, the dark mode was acceptable for my needs and it had webhooks, etc which means integrations are limited to your imagination. Until then, I'm using TidyCal that I bought from AppSumo as a LTD that works pretty well for being what it is.

I've been using the hosted version of this and I really like it.

Hoping a Cloudron button will be added here soon

I've just created this "It's not yet possible to deploy Cal on Cloudron" issue on their github, chime in!

@jdaviescoates / @girish - Thank you!!

[LoudLemur]

@jdaviescoates That was a well phrased post. It looks like it is gaining some responses.

[ajtatum]

Definitely excited about this possibility!

The latest comment I see is that they don't plan to support Cloudron, but they open to merge it in, if someone will do the job of integrating, unfortunately.

[jdaviescoates]

@potemkin_ai yeah, hoping they'd package it for us was a bit hopeful, but still worth putting it out there imho

Hopefully someone else will take a look.

@msbt
Hi, I would like to take a look at this. I recently built my own N8N instance. And would really like to get cal.com running on cloudron.

Could you share more of your work in progress?

[ajtatum]

@roofboard Ohhh... I like your n8n changes! I have a couple questions if you don't mind. I'll send you message.

[LoudLemur]

@thetomester13 What is the connection between Calendso and Cal.com? Is Calendso just a community edition / Free Software version of Cal.com?

[jdaviescoates]

@LoudLemur no, cal.com is the new name for calendso

[chetbaker]

Hello folks, anyone with some news on this? They just released version 2.0

[mabaker]

Would love to have this as well. Please make it happen

[roofboard]

@mabaker @chetbaker I am working on this happy to join up and hack together on it. If you wanna hack on this with me just set a time on my calendar and we can work on it. https://short.draglabs.com/cal

@roofboard I’m not a developer, but happy to test out when there’s any unstable self hosted implementation.

[jdaviescoates]

@roofboard great news, thanks! Hopefully @staff or @appdev can help out too!

Would love to see support for Cal.com as well!

[roofboard]

I have made some progress here apparently calcom needs access to a database while running yarn build, and while running yarn it would be writing to /app/code

So I created a temporary database so long as you build this on a server with access to postgres this will work. The only problem is that I cannot figure out why it is stuck on localhost:3000 as opposed to accepting the new dns settings

@girish
Any thoughts?

Your work looks very promising! Unfortunately, there is not much feedback I can provide from the technical perspective.
