OpenTalk & OpenCloud at FrOSCon 2025

On August 16 and 17, 2025, it's that time again: FrOSCon brings together the open source community, developers, and IT professionals in Sankt Augustin. OpenTalk will be there again this year – together with OpenCloud, the file management solution from the Heinlein Group. At our joint booth, we will present our solutions for digital communication – open, transparent, and with a passion for good software.
OpenCloud: Our learnings for a simple, stable file cloud
Saturday, August 16, 2025, 10:00 a.m.
HS 6 | Track: Cloud | Language: German
Speaker: Tobias Baader, Product Manager at OpenCloud
OpenCloud is more than a classic file sync service: the open source platform combines modern file management, reliable performance, and flexible expandability in a lean architecture. In his presentation, Tobias Baader will introduce the special features of the solution, demonstrate use cases and expansion options – including the example of “Nintendo gaming.” In this technical deep dive, you will learn why OpenCloud builds on proven concepts but does many things better.

HS 5 | Track: Limited usability – European Accessibility Act | Language: German
Speakers: Emre Neumann, Frontend Developer at OpenTalk & Dennis Kalbhen, Director of Technical Services at OpenTalk
Accessibility does not end with the HTML standard. Complex web applications such as OpenTalk, which are much more than classic websites, pose their own unique challenges. In this presentation, our developers will provide insight into over a year of intensive work on the accessible frontend: from requirements to feedback processes and tools to technical patterns that have proven themselves for us. Open, practical, and with an eye to what's coming next.
