@d1 @jadehopepunk @coopcloud thanks all for writing back :)

Oh this is interesting @goblin @mox

From a Quick Look around …

Kolicloud is a web-based tool for digital collaboration and combines different tools in a common dashboard.

Has similar community hosting goals to us.

From the KolliCloud repo..

“The KolliCloud is a free service provided by Local-IT e.V. (LIT) in collaboration with the coopcloud-community. It is a collection of software tools specifically designed for small to medium-sized clubs, associations, and NGOs to facilitate digital collaboration.”

There are three options for using the KolliCloud:

Self-hosting
Managed Hosting
Collective Hosting
You can find more information on our website(https://kollicloud.de/hosting/).

This repository mainly contains references to other repositories. This is because the setup of the KolliCloud is based on abra from the coop-Cloud and our own Meta-Configuration tool, alakazam.

https://git.local-it.org/local-it/kollicloud

Looking at Alakazam.. seems to offer that meta config layer that can I was mentioning…

“Alakazam serves as a wrapper for Abra to make it easier to manage configurations across multiple instances. The global configuration for all KolliClouds can be regulated via alakazam, even if this can of course be adjusted in more detail per customer.

An example: Help, i.e. the link to the KolliCloud Wiki, is available in all KolliClouds on the dashboard. This is stored in the alaka defaults. If the link were to change, this would only have to be changed in the one alaka-defaults file and not in every authentic recipe for every KolliCloud.”

And here’s the underlying git repo:

“Alakazam is a meta-configuration app-connector and an abra wrapper, designed as a proof-of-concept to simplify the management of environment configuration files across multiple instances.”
