<![CDATA[Cal.com (was Calendso) - Calendly Alternative]]>There's been talk of finding a real Calendly alternative here, and it looks like Calendso (Github, site) might be it! It only supports Google Calendar at the time of writing, but the homepage seems to imply they're working on more integrations. Worth keeping an eye on.

Just saw the repo, amazing.

Do you have an ETA for cal.com to arrive on the Cloudron store? (or at least in the testing stage)

Ping me if you need testers for the app.

It mostly works, however it requires patching code for the domain, which cal.com so far requires at build time.

Currently, the plan is to wait for few more releases and see if this current patching approach is solid enough to publish the package then.

Do you have any instructions on how to set up this custom package?

Would really like to use cal.com on my cloudron instance!

The package works as in:

  • Installation of node_modules works
  • Building works
  • Supposedly - I have not tested this part, thus why I'm handing my code out here - the start script should work correctly
  • Required environment vars are configured during first startup of the application and verified at each start

@girish The repo code that I linked can be freely used as a good advanced starting point by the team in order to package cal.com. If there are any questions, please feel free to ask by mentioning me in this thread

@3699n yes, I think it's worthwhile re-investigating the current situation with selfhosting cal.com . Added to our internal list.

FYI, I am as of yesterday attempting to package cal.com for Cloudron, so far, the project dependencies installation and building is working. I am currently looking over the startup part of cal.com, and might be able to provide a working package or, at the least, a good starting point.

Would it be possible for you to take another look @girish ? Cal.com would still be a killer app to have on the platform.

Sure you can package them in vanilla Docker, but then you have all the maintenance and debugging that app store managed apps have done for you.

FWIW, if you didn't already look, Easy Appointments is already available:

And these are free Wordpress plugins options:

Cal.com does look great, and I've seen the 95% of work done on it to attempt to make is Cloudron-easy as an app store app, but sometimes that last 5% is many times more work, and then author negotiation, than the 95% part.

I guess that's the thing about open-source, no-one is entitled to anything, it's always going to be a best effort at the time offering.

If you want guarantees, then you can always subscribe to cal.com directly, and influence their development directly.

I think the expectation that Cloudron fixes every apps inadequacies to package and maintain and make easy for all, is always going to need some pragmatism.

As they say, you can pay with your money, or with your time, at least you have that freedom of choice and voice here.

Cloudron is definitely the easiest solution to work with, but for $150 a year I anticipated more apps being released over the past year.

It's pretty much the only service like this that integrates with self-hosted caldav calendars.
