  • awesome-selfhosted

    A list of Free Software network services and web applications which can be hosted on your own servers

  • It is nothing fancy, a nuc, a raspberry pi, a 4-bay nas, some esp32s running what worked for me from awesome-selfhosted. More details in my answer to one of the posts of nashosted.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • WLED

    Control WS2812B and many more types of digital RGB LEDs with an ESP8266 or ESP32 over WiFi!

  • They are great for IoT! Take a look at WLED . It has tons of features (even audio visualisation) and works flawlessly with an ESP32.

  • hyperion.ng

    The successor to Hyperion aka Hyperion Next Generation

  • WLED is indeed great, I have one in my man cave, one behind the living room TV (synced to the picture thanks to hyperion which is also available as HA addon) and one in my daughter's room. Low WAF has prevented more WLEDs from cropping up all around the house.

  • room-assistant

    Presence tracking and more for automation on the room-level

  • Earlier I had six raspberry pi's spread around the house to try out new things (e.g. room level presence detection - which did not work well despite weeks of tuning - and as snapcast clients). But it became a pita to keep watch over so many independent systems, updating them, remembering the IP, passwords, forgetting what I have installed last time, etc. This is what I like with the whole docker thing: fire up a container, tweak it, and then if it is not used delete it again without affecting the other services.

  • Cloudbox

    Ansible-based solution for rapidly deploying a Docker containerized cloud media server.

  • cloudbox looks more developed than marauder https://github.com/Cloudbox/Cloudbox
