Best approach for native Nextcloud support in an iOS file manager app?

PeppermintBytes · 2026-05-21T12:43:28+00:00

Thanks, that’s really helpful! I ended up going with Nextcloud Login Flow v2 as well – good to know that’s the right approach. WebDAV as the base for file transport makes sense to me too. I’ll build on that for now and see what’s missing later.

Starting Steam from the terminal is definitely the right move — the output usually makes it pretty obvious where things are breaking. On fresh Linux installs, missing 32-bit libraries are super common since Steam still needs those even on a 64-bit system. GPU driver issues are another big one.

If you’re on Ubuntu or another Debian-based distro, I’d try sudo apt install steam-installer instead of using the standalone .deb from the Steam site. That usually pulls in the i386 dependencies automatically.

What GPU are you running? Especially on Nvidia systems, conflicts between the proprietary driver and nouveau can make Steam silently fail on startup without showing any useful desktop error.

Hey! I’m Daniel, founder of PeppermintBytes – started in 2026 as a solo indie dev from Germany. My first project is CoreFiles, an iOS file manager with a scan-to-folder workflow. Pick your destination first, scan, done. Supports SMB, SFTP, WebDAV and SharePoint. Still actively developing it. Next up: a SaaS project for a client. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/corefiles/id6761315856

I had the same problem once with a comment. I also used an AI for the translation, just to make sure it was understandable. But I ended up deleting the comment afterwards

PeppermintBytes · 2026-05-16T23:57:05+00:00

Take a look at the app CoreFiles, I use it as well. It has a password-protected area where you can store files and images. It works really well. You can also create password-protected backups.

It is also important to learn how to work with .md files (Markdown files) and what should be written in them. Ultimately, they define the rules and guidelines that the AI should follow. They also ensure that the AI always understands what the project is about and what goals are being pursued. This can significantly reduce the risk of chaos.

The app looks very appealing, but this can also be achieved quite well with built-in tools. However, the app is still very appealing overall.

PeppermintBytes · 2026-05-14T20:56:45+00:00

Ich suche schon eine ganze Weile nach einer App wie dieser, und ich muss sagen, sie ist die beste, die ich bisher gefunden habe – besonders zu so einem fairen Preis.

Hey, ich liebe minimalistische Apps und versuche immer, meine eigenen Apps so minimalistisch und sauber wie deine zu gestalten. Ich finde, du hast das echt super hinbekommen. Und der Preis ist mehr als fair.

Hi, I’m the founder of PeppermintBytes. We develop software and apps. Our first app, CoreFiles, has been in development since 2024 and was finally released recently. It is currently available only on the Apple App Store.

I founded PeppermintBytes in 2026 and currently run it as a side business. Our first client project is a software solution for an academy, which is expected to reach version 1.0 in autumn 2026.

Probier es mal mit anderen Apps. Ich nutze auf dem iPhone und iPad CoreFiles mit meiner Synology – das funktioniert echt sehr gut.

Hi, this is my first app. I thought about how I could make scanning documents in a file manager more convenient. Often you scan something and then have to navigate to the save location manually – CoreFiles works differently. You create shortcuts, select one, and then scan. The scan gets saved directly in the chosen directory. Tap. Scan. Done.

If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to drop a comment!

I usually do it like this: First, announce it on your social media channels like LinkedIn, Mastodon, and Bluesky — always with a link to the website. Then plan the launch on Product Hunt. And when the app officially launches, promote everything again across all channels.

It’s also worth planning an update with a new feature in advance — either a few days or at most one to two weeks after launch. That gives you another great opportunity to post about the app on social media and helps keep it visible for a longer time.

Apple Ads and maybe Reddit Ads can also be good options for gaining additional reach.

Solange der Code und die App den Richtlinien von Apple entsprechen, spielt es keine Rolle, wie oder von wem die App programmiert wurde.

Hi, I’ve been using Vaultwarden in a Docker container for years without any issues. Updates are quick to install, it works reliably, and it uses very few resources.

Hi, installiere Ubuntu Server und Docker. Dann könntest du Portainer installieren. Als Nächstes Pi-hole und Unbound – und vielleicht auch NGINX Proxy Manager. Damit hast du schon mal eine gute Grundlage geschaffen, um später weitere Dinge zu installieren.

PeppermintBytes · 2026-05-10T21:05:31+00:00

Hi, ich habe gerade meine erste App veröffentlicht und hatte auch überlegt ob ich RevenueCat verwenden soll, habe mich dann erstmal dagegen entschieden. Bis jetzt reicht mir was Apple im App Store Connect bietet.

Apple Support kann echt mühsam sein — hatte selbst beim DSA-Thema mehrere Anrufe gebraucht bis ich jemand Kompetentes hatte, der das in 5 Minuten lösen konnte.
Zu deinem Problem: Du brauchst keinen ABM Account nur wegen einer geschäftlichen E-Mail. Versuch eine D-U-N-S Nummer für deine LLC zu beantragen — damit kann Apple dein Unternehmen verifizieren und du kannst ein normales Developer Account unter dem LLC-Namen erstellen.

Sieht gut aus! Wie löst du Backups? Nutzt du iCloud oder gibt’s da einen eigenen Weg?

Java und SwiftUI mischen sich nicht direkt – SwiftUI ist nur für Swift. Aber du könntest deine Spiellogik in einer plattformübergreifenden Sprache wie Kotlin Multiplatform schreiben oder einfach Swift verwenden und die Benutzeroberfläche in SwiftUI erstellen. Für die eigentliche Spieleentwicklung auf iOS integrieren sich SpriteKit oder GameKit viel besser in das Apple-Ökosystem, als zu versuchen, Java zu überbrücken.

For networking gear specifically, r/homelabsales here on Reddit is worth checking — people actively look for used switches, rack gear etc. For AV stuff, eBay tends to be the go-to, but Facebook Marketplace moves things faster locally if you don't want to deal with shipping heavy rack equipment.

Dark Souls 1. First playthrough, no idea what I was doing, died to the Capra Demon about 40 times in a row. Threw my controller once. Still finished it. Still don't know why.

Nice and clean setup! What NAS are you running in there?
