About

HomelabAddiction is a technical blog focused on home labbing, self-hosting, and open-source infrastructure.

The goal is simple:
to document practical setups, real-world configurations, and lessons learned while running services at home – without unnecessary hype or fluff.

Here you’ll find guides and write-ups on topics such as:

Self-hosting applications and services

Docker, containers, and orchestration

Virtualization and hypervisors

Storage, networking, and backups

Open-source tools used in real home labs

Most articles are written from hands-on experience, with an emphasis on clarity, reproducibility, and long-term maintainability.

HomelabAddiction is built for:

Developers and engineers

Self-hosting enthusiasts

Learners building their first home lab

Anyone interested in owning and understanding their infrastructure

This site is independently run and continuously evolving as new tools, setups, and experiments are explored.
