From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I think Nextcloud is an easy option. Lots og dedicated WebDav servers out there. For CardDav and CalDav (Contacts and calendar) I rembember that Radicale is a good bet: https://radicale.org/v3.html
Radicale is more specific, it is CalDAV/CardDAV and not WebDAV. If that's what you're looking for, it's an amazing option. I've used it for years and I really like how it stores calendar events as a folder of ICS files; it makes backup and sync very easy.
For a general, lightweight WebDAV server, you can use the nginx DAV module. Nextcloud (or whatever you use) probably will be reverse proxied by nginx anyway, so if you can just enable a module in nginx, that's pretty much as lightweight as it can get.
edit: forgot the link https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_dav_module.html
