** Initial install
Within a browser go to your owncloud domain, then create an administrator account. The username and password can be anything, and ideally should be generated from a password manager.
You will also need to enter database details:
| Owncloud database user | owncloudadmin |
| Owncloud database password | See the [[Readme]] file |
| Owncloud database name | owncloud |
After creating an administrator account then create a user account via the Users dropdown menu entry on the right hand side and log the details in a password manager. Give the user a quota suitable for the size of your microSD card or other storage.
Log out from the administrator account and then log back in as the user you just created.
** On Android
Within F-droid search for *owncloud* and install the client. Also install *CalDAV Sync Adapter*.
Open the owncloud app and enter your owncloud domain name (including the https prefix) and login details for the user you created.
Open the calendar app and under *settings* add a CalDav account with the url:
#+BEGIN_SRC bash
https://myownclouddomain/remote.php/caldav/principals/myowncloudusername
#+END_SRC
You will also be prompted to enter login details. Your Android and Owncloud calendars should now be synchronised.
