  "account": "Nextcloud has unveiled a new desktop application for its Euro-Office suite, designed to facilitate seamless editing of Microsoft Office and open document formats locally. The app, available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, aims to provide a viable alternative to Microsoft Office while maintaining compatibility with its formats. Euro-Office, a fork of OnlyOffice, was initially introduced in March 2026. The Nextcloud Office Desktop app boasts editors for text documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and PDFs, offering high compatibility with Microsoft Office formats such as DOCX, XLSX, and PPTX, as well as open formats like ODT, ODS, and ODP. By connecting to Nextcloud Hub, users can collaborate in real-time with their team on these files. Although the official name of the software is the Nextcloud Office Desktop app, the source material clarifies that it is powered by Euro-Office, a crucial detail for users who may have downloaded it expecting a different application. The app can be downloaded from the provided download page.",
