Self Hosting
This page will cover the services I self host. It will also go into the parts that may be considered more "homelab-ish". I hope to cover all the tech I work with on a regular or irregular basis as well as link to any references where I have written about my setup.
Infrastructure
This section is going to contain the infrastructure. It is broken down into two categories, basically, it's the stuff I own physically versus stuff I "own" or rent virually.
Physical Hardware
I bring tech with my everywhere.
Under Construction
Virtual Hardware
I have a VPS to use for external access, vpn services, a proxy and a static IP address.
Software
There are a number of applications I use on a day to day basis. I will eventually build this out and expand to list those as well, for the time being I will focus on hosted services. A sample of some of the applications I would call out as examples are Feishin, vscodium and GIMP.
Below are the pieces of software I would say I actively use as a server/client relationship. IE. I host an application to my personal cloud.
Services in quotations are homegrown. Read the use or description for a better understanding of what it is.
