+In [this demo](https://youtu.be/DIhfSRKAKHw), appropriately titled "Zero to Hero in 10 minutes," Weynand takes us through the steps of deploying a Nextcloud instance on top of the ThreeFold Grid, and tries to do the whole deployment in under ten minutes.
+
+<br/> 
+
+This time, Weynand uses Terraform to first launch the Virtual Machine within which the Nextcloud instance will run, and then uses Docker to install Nextcloud. Please note it's also simple to launch a Virtual Machine using the ThreeFold Playground, which Weynand touches on.
+
+<br/> 
+
+Also, shoutout to Teisie for providing the farm on top of which Weynand decided to do his demo.
+

+[Nextcloud](https://nextcloud.com/) is an open source, self-hosted file sync & communication app platform.

+Community member Kiluminati found ThreeFold and was impressed with the technology and the potential, but felt that deploying on the grid wasn't always so user friendly. So, they decided to take action and do something about it.
+
+<br/>
+
+From Kiluminati, "Foldit is my attempt at providing a (relatively) easy interface for novice users to get their workloads up and running fast." While Foldit is still very much a work in progress, it's already quite an impressive effort and getting nice reactions from the community.

+Since cloud technology is live, Erwan was always wondering where and how its datas were going to be stored and used. Sovereignty and privacy concerns always made him reluctant in using such services. That's why, after more than a decade working on oil & gas research projects, he was very enthusiastic about joining the Threefold team and contributing to define a new internet paradigm.
