## What it is
ONLYOFFICE Docs (Document Server) is a free, self-hostable collaborative online office suite with viewers and editors for text documents, spreadsheets, presentations, forms, PDFs, and diagrams. It is fully compatible with Office Open XML formats (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx) and supports real-time collaborative editing, integrating with platforms like Nextcloud, Odoo, Moodle, and Seafile.

## Use cases
- self-host a Google Docs alternative for my team
- edit docx files in the browser
- add collaborative document editing to Nextcloud
- integrate an office editor into my web app
- collaboratively edit spreadsheets in real time
- fill out and create PDF forms online
- edit office documents inside Moodle or Odoo

## When to choose
- you need a self-hosted office suite with full DOCX/XLSX/PPTX compatibility
- you want real-time co-editing integrated into your own platform or sync&share solution
- data sovereignty matters and documents must stay on your own server
- you need PDF form creation and fillable forms

## When to avoid
- you only need a lightweight viewer without server infrastructure
- your project requires a permissive license (AGPL-3.0 applies)
- you need offline-first desktop editing only (use the desktop apps instead)
- you cannot run Node.js-based server services or Docker
