This website will try to guide you through setting up your own home lab. From registering your own domain name through to running your own mail-server, media-server and web-server. We’ll cover the setup of Word Press, Home Assistant, Plex Server, Sonarr, Radarr and different download clients. This website uses primarily a Synology NAS as server and Docker as its platform. We will cover Reverse Proxy, Certificates and securing your mailserver through DKIM and DMARC. All along I will try to explain to the best of my knowledge how the technique works and how you can adjust it to your own taste.
