Hey there,

good question actually. Currently there is no plan to create an ownCloud app for Firefox OS, neither am I aware of anyone building something like that. However, there are some other efforts in that direction:

* With ownCloud 7, most of the web interface (Files, sharing, Pictures, Music, Personal settings, etc.) is responsive and works nicely on mobile / small screens (tablets or smartphones). Since lots of Firefox apps are also just links to web apps, it’s essentially the same. The problem of course is that we can’t make »the one« ownCloud app because everyone’s ownCloud is at a different location. (Essentially box.net’s Firefox OS app does it just like that – it’s just a link to their web service)

* As part of the Outreach Program for Women, Lyndsey (in CC) is working on a »Camera backup app« for Firefox OS. This app will be like the instant upload functionality in the Android app – pictures you take are automatically uploaded to your ownCloud. Browsing functionality is not planned yet.

* The stock Firefox OS Calendar app can sync with ownCloud Calendar (just use the CalDAV address from the Calendar settings) – I think Firefox OS Contacts unfortunately does not support CardDAV yet.

* There are already two other apps which sync with ownCloud News (/ RSS reader): https://marketplace.firefox.com/search?q=owncloud both are open source as well.

* If there is a generic WebDAV app for Firefox OS, that could be used too. I am not aware of one at the moment though.


While that doesn’t help much, I hope it brings light to the question. ;)

Hey guys,

First of all, thanks for everything, I use ownCloud since the
beginning and I really love it.

I have a simple question : do you plan to create an ownCloud
"application" for FirefoxOS ? I'd like to buy a ZTE Open C and there
is just one application l will miss : it is ownCloud Client.
I know that FirefoxOS is a web-based technologies system but i'm
wondering if there will be a FirefoxOS version of the ownCloud Client.

Best wishes,

dada
