  • compute-runtime

    Intel® Graphics Compute Runtime for oneAPI Level Zero and OpenCL™ Driver

  • Download and install the 5 packages here: https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime/releases/tag/21.49.21786 (This makes HW Transcode work with Tone Mapping, you can try a newer release but these packages break frequently and I know this one works.)

  • portainer_templates

    Template file for new portainer setup

  • I know you said in another comment that you weren't interested in Docker, but I have found Docker + Portainer to be an easy way to handle my Plex server along with an *Arr stack to support it. I was able to use templates to do most of the heavy lifting, especially at first. Here's a huge repository of them: https://qballjos.github.io/portainer_templates/

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
