Right now I’m building a homelab on a raspberry pi cluster. I run some utilities that I like to be able to access anywhere, so each node in the cluster is running tailscale:

  • Bitwarden - For password management
  • Home Assistant - For home automation. My aim is to be able to control things like my thermostat while I’m out of the house without exposing things to public internet

I keep it all in a public repo that anyone can take a look at, my docker images are private though:

At home:

  • Connect all the devices. No good reason at all but ¯_(ツ)_/¯

At work:

  • Providing access to the MySQL server for all developers. Low latency really makes a difference.
