@marcusquinn Not really cursed, only not using the right file extension. What you are showing is the XML code of the file.
I do not know how your nextcloud is set. Only, when I click on the + and choose to create a diagram type Nextcloud asks for the file name immediately and saves it as a .drawio file by default. As also explained by @fbartels you should save your file as .drawio and it should work as I stated mine works. AMOF if you open the .drawio file with text editor you will, indeed, still see the xml code.

I was about to create an App Wishlist for diagrams.net.Lets have this happen on Cloudron.
Datavisualizations, such as diagrams, are an important part of the thought and communication process. We need to be able to represent our ideas at a glance without resorting to proprietary tools, which might censor our discussions.

We can already have Draw.io as a Nextcloud app, but I suppose that might not integrate well with Outline. That said, it's so easy to export as an image with Draw.io (literally just select the area of your diagram you want, right click and save) that it may no be such a problem. But true that if diagram dynamically change in Outline when you change them in Draw.io that would be rather sexy.

That would be nice.
But even if it doesn't do that, but just lets you create nice diagrams within Outline without having to go anywhere else, that'd be nice too.

@avatar1024 I'm not seeing that in the app store, but we do tend to add https://app.diagrams.net as URL App. I wonder if that would work for now?
-
@jdaviescoates From what I can tell https://app.diagrams.net stores data in the browser, so perhaps more of a nice-to-have, since it already seems pretty private.

You mean in Outline? Let me try...

@jdaviescoates Oh, that's in Nextcloud. I thought you means in the Cloudron App Store.

The standard way for integrating/embedding draw.io is described in https://www.drawio.com/blog/embedding-walkthrough.
It's a protocol via postMessage for load/save. You'd have whatever storage interface there is for cloudron (sorry, I'm not familiar with it) and add a create diagram button. The self-hosted draw.io is shown in an iFrame and saves go back to the parent to store somewhere. That's how pretty much all the integrations works, nextcloud, gitlab, etc.
