This the repo, which deployes my homelab with Ansible.
I like the idea of Infrastructure of Code, Automations, and reproducible builds. This is my attempt to achieve this for my homelab.
What's a homelab?
It's a hardware and software experimental laboratory for you to test and break bleeding-edge technologies. And learn, learn so much about how the internet works, what's behind the scenes of common cloud services and large websites, and much more.
At the same time, a homelab can be your production environment to run self-hosted services to enhance your quality of life, while achieving maximum privacy, because all of you data is at your home.
To learn more, consult /c/selfhosted, /r/homelab, and /r/selfhosted.
