Dropbox sync

Would it be possible to implement the function that synchronizes Overleaf with Dropbox?

Yes, it's possible. Anything that doesn't break the laws of physics is possible, it just takes time. I do have it in my plans, and I’d prefer to support synchronization with Nextcloud, but I’m not sure when I’ll have time to implement it. Pull requests are welcome!

Thank you for the further plan. Hope to see a new implemented function version soon

I installed your image today and am pleased to say it's working nicely!

I'm also interested in implementing Nextcloud webdav support. Since you are already thinking about it, would you care to share your thoughts on how to go about implementing it with us? Point us to any files to look at, if say, there is already a framework in the codebase for Dropbox, or if this needs to be built from scratch.

I would share my thoughts, but I still don’t have any :) I believe one should look more closely at web/app/src/Features/ThirdPartyDataStore.

This would be awesome!
