| + | # Files |
| + | [Nextcloud](/tools/nextcloud) provides a place to host files for access anywhere with an internet connection. The files can also be synced between devices for use without an internet connection. |
| + | |
| + | ::: warning |
| + | This is not a proper backup of the files although everything on the server is regularily backed up and there is some versioning control for files. You should still keep seperate backups of your important files on at least 3 devices in at least 2 different physical locations. |
| + | ::: |
| + | |
| + | ## Basic Usage |
| + | You can view and interact with your files via the web interface or you can use the official nextcloud applications to sync some or all of the Nextcloud folders with device folders. |
| + | |
| + | :::info |
| + | A best practice is to **not** keep files in the root level of Nextcloud files but rather organizing them in sub folders such as the *Documents* folder. This will make syncing and sharing much less confusing and selectively controlable. |
