Mika<p>I've finally completed <i>most</i> of the guides I was planning on adding to my <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Homelab" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Homelab</a> Wiki - now it's got guides on setting up <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Portainer" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Portainer</a>, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Immich" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Immich</a>, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Jellyfin" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Jellyfin</a>, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/ErsatzTV" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ErsatzTV</a>, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OpenMediaVault" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenMediaVault</a> (<a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/OMV" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OMV</a>), and even <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/HomeAssistant" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HomeAssistant</a> - all of these (besides Jellyfin and ErsatzTV, those are on <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Proxmox" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Proxmox</a>) are hosted on my <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/RaspberryPi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#RaspberryPi</a><span> in my homelab.<br><br>Most importantly though, I've organised the wiki a lil better - into different </span><i>courses</i>. The first course details the type of hardware you're going to want to assemble - a <i>beefy</i> server (with only consumer parts) or a <i>mini</i> server (i.e. an <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/SBC" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SBC</a>), or whether you'd like to deploy a <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/NAS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NAS</a>, followed by a course to setting up and managing a hypervisor (including <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/ESXi" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ESXi</a>, but really, use Proxmox - which is <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/FOSS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FOSS</a><span> and plain better).<br><br>There's also a whole course on all sorts of 'host deployment environments' (i.e. where your application is hosted on, like </span><a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/VM" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#VM</a>, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Docker" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Docker</a>, <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/Kubernetes" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kubernetes</a>, and <a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/LXC" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LXC</a><span>) you could have in your homelab. (One of the) Most importantly, a course on networking - which covers valuable topics like setting up a domain, free or paid, and setting up a reverse proxy for serving your hosted applications publicly, securely.<br><br>There's still some stuffs I gotta add, like a complete guide on setting up </span><a href="https://sakurajima.social/tags/TrueNAS" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TrueNAS</a> (which I've set up for many years at this point, without much documentation on how I did it - so I gotta find an opp to replicate it, when I have extra hardware maybe), but I'm pretty happy with it at this point.
