๐ What's This All About?¶
Hello and welcome! This is my personal homelab documentation โ a living knowledge base where I'm trying to document everything from infrastructure setup to those 3 AM debugging sessions that teach you way too much about Docker networking.
๐ค Why Self-Host?¶
Reasons I run a homelab:
- Fun โ Because it's actually so enjoyable
- Curiosity - It's amazing to see how things work
- Learning โ Best way to understand infrastructure
- Privacy โ My data stays on my hardware
- Control โ I decide when things update (or break)
- Cost โ Cloud bills add up fast, even faster than electricity ones
