I'm trying out Nextcloud to use as on my home server. It looks great, but seems way overkill for just two users that really only want the file sync. capability.

As I'm reading I'm seeing references to WebDAV and it seems that the Nextcloud file sync. server might be "just" a WebDAV server? If it is, might it be possible to point the Nextcloud sync. client (on Windows and Android) at an appropriately configured Apache or nginx server?

The reason I'm asking here, rather than just trying for myself, is that I have no experience with WebDAV and have no idea what an appropriately configured server might mean in this situation. I'm happy to go do the required learning to make it work - just looking for someone to tell me it's not possible before I put too much effort into it.
