# Homelab Setup
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
Setting up a personal homelab using a ThinkPad laptop running Arch Linux to move away from cloud providers like Google.
|
|
|
|
## Goals
|
|
- [x] Linux installation (Arch Linux on ThinkPad)
|
|
- [x] SSH remote access (hostname: homelab)
|
|
- [x] Dotfiles and development environment setup
|
|
- [x] Network domain setup with SSL certificates
|
|
- [x] Self-hosted file server with WebDAV (copyparty)
|
|
- [x] Self-hosted git repository (Gitea)
|
|
- [x] Self-hosted media server (Jellyfin)
|
|
- [x] AI voice assistant (local TTS with Piper)
|
|
- [x] Reverse proxy with nginx for multiple services
|
|
- [ ] Gradual migration from commercial cloud services
|
|
|
|
## Hardware
|
|
- **Main Server**: ThinkPad laptop
|
|
- **Development**: Windows PC with WSL (for AI experimentation)
|
|
- **Android tablet**: Not good for long-term work but can be useful for short SSH sessions
|
|
- Runs Manjaro in a VM, same OS like the laptop
|
|
|
|
## Inspiration & Resources
|
|
- PewDiePie homelab setup video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_Lxkt50xOg
|
|
- Need to collect tips and inspiration from this video
|
|
|
|
## Current Status
|
|
- ✅ Arch Linux installed on ThinkPad
|
|
- ✅ SSH access configured (accessible as `homelab`)
|
|
- ✅ Dotfiles management with yadm configured and merged
|
|
- ✅ Development environment setup completed
|
|
- ✅ Network domain setup (DuckDNS + Nginx reverse proxy + SSL)
|
|
- ✅ Gitea Git server running (Docker container)
|
|
- ✅ Copyparty file server with working WebDAV support
|
|
- ✅ Jellyfin media server (Docker container)
|
|
- ✅ AI voice assistant with local TTS (Piper + FastAPI)
|
|
- ✅ All services accessible via HTTPS with proper SSL certificates
|
|
- Next: Additional self-hosted services, backup solutions
