Homelab

Welcome to d0dg3r’s h0m3L@8 — a personal showcase of an IaC-driven homelab platform.

The lab mirrors what you typically find in enterprise IT — preferably via the open-source / community editions of those tools. The managed fleet runs Rocky Linux for enterprise compatibility. Proxmox is the compute foundation for nearly all guests and workloads. Lifecycle, patching, tickets, and changes are automated as far as practical.

Here you will find:

• News — homelab journal since 1 August 2026 (earlier stations stay visible)
• the logical architecture from edge and identity to compute and observability
• Forgejo — self-hosted Git as the source of truth for lab code; CI on Linux, macOS, and Windows (amd64 and ARM64)
• this website — Forgejo → private GitHub mirror → Cloudflare Pages (Hugo)
• connectivity — dual 5G, CGNAT, and outbound tunnels instead of port-forwards
• storage & backup — Ceph, file tiers, backup instead of RAID everywhere
• the design principles that guide how the lab is built and operated
• a service overview across platform, ops, and app workloads
• the hardware that carries compute, runners, networking, and storage
• a look at home automation
• Ops AI showcases — controlled multi-pass analyses and patch notes (scrubbed)

These pages show how the building blocks fit together — as a portfolio, not as an operations dashboard.
