NextCloud's Calendar is great handy, but the documentation leaves much to be desired...

Specifically, I've run into issues getting the calendar to sync with Mac OS X.

Here are the steps to get to syncing...

restart your mac
open your NextCloud calendar
click "Setting & Import" on the lower left
scroll down
"Copy iOS/macOS CalDAV address"
paste this address to a test editor
split the address into 2 segments
- protocol + location
- /remote.php/dav/principals/users/Template:YourUserNameHere/
open the Calendar app
open preferences
add "Other CalDAV Account..."
pick advanced
fill the fields
- user
- password
- "Server Adress:" =protocol + location
- "Server Path:" =/remote.php/dav/principals/users/{{YourUserNameHere}}}/
- Port: 443
- Use SSL: yes
