I'm looking for a self hosted calendar that supports multiple users, runs in docker, and is easy to integrate into home assistant and a phone app. Does anything like this exist or should i lower my expectations?

I run Nextcloud for this. Never understood the complaints about it, I find it hard to believe everyone's so short of CPU power that Nextcloud is anything more than a rounding error running in the background.

There's half a dozen of us using it for shared calendars, files, and contacts.

Currently around 6TB of files, a couple of hundred or so contacts in the shared contacts list, and many recurring (and one off) events.

Been working perfectly since before Nextcloud forked from OwnCloud.

If you don't follow their tuning guide, Nextcloud does run very poorly on SQLite and without Redis/caching. Apache also performs significantly worse than nginx + php-fpm.

https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/installation/server_tuning.html

It does run very well with Postgres + Redis + php-fpm + OPcache and has been pretty much the center of my selfhosting endeavor since ownCloud times.

The AIO mastercontainer seems to do fine on Apache, but when I had it dockerized myself, I used nginx and it was fine. I really think the main point is using postgres and redis. Mysql isn't great and sqlite is terribad in the stack.
