I would have installed k11/kde, for fun, however it's currently not packaged for FreeBSD:15:latest on AMD64.

Another example of how not to use NextBSD: the second screenshot was of an earlier session, awaiting appearance of a termbin.com URL. It would have been a long wait.

BSD-based Web Office Software?

Are there any web office software projects that natively run on a *BSD server? I'm not talking about software that relies on Linux-based shims to run on any of the BSDs, I'm specifically talking about web office software that is either specifically written for the BSD ecosystem, or is at least has *BSD as a first tier platform.

I need your tricks & ideas :)

I'm making a New Apple Darwin Fork named GlueDarwin for using in desktop & server
Darwin use some components & features from BSD(I think FreeBSD 3.1 or newer)

I created a GitHub page website with gluedarwin username & a subreddit

if anyone has a trick or idea or suggestion to help my project I really appreciate :))
