Home lab automation

A personal infrastructure project centered on self-hosting, repeatable operations, and learning through real systems.

  • Proxmox
  • Ansible
  • Docker
  • Caddy

Overview

My home lab is where a lot of my personal infrastructure and automation ideas get pressure-tested. It is a practical environment for self-hosting services, refining deployment workflows, and learning through real operational constraints.

What it includes

  • a multi-node Proxmox environment
  • 20+ dockerized applications and services
  • Ansible-driven automation for repeatable setup and maintenance
  • Caddy-based ingress for static sites and self-hosted apps

Why it matters

This project ties together a lot of what I enjoy most: Linux-heavy workflows, infrastructure that can be rebuilt cleanly, and the habit of automating anything I know I will have to do more than once.
