I have an extra laptop with 8gb or ram that I want to turn into my Nextcloud server.

The steps that I think I need to take:

Learn how to set up a server on a laptop.
Learn how to install Nextcloud software on the server.

But I'm confused because I came across a video where someone set up Nexcloud right on their Windows laptop. Does that mean I can do that on my Ubuntu laptop?

I think it's worth your time to investigate docker containers. Look into the all-in-one nextcloud container (AIO). Last I heard, that's the recommended way to do it.

If you're gonna go docker definitely do the AIO. As huquad mentioned its the official docker deployment method, and its the best docker implementation I've used for Nextcloud, and I tried em all.
