About NOX Homelab

NOX Homelab is a practical documentation website about building and operating self-hosted services.

The goal is simple: publish real, copy-friendly homelab guides that explain what was built, why it was built that way, how to deploy it, and how to troubleshoot the mistakes that happen in real environments.

Topics include:

• Docker and Docker Compose
• Traefik reverse proxy and TLS
• Authentik SSO and forward-auth
• Headscale and private networking
• Garage S3 object storage
• Jekyll documentation workflows
• self-hosted dashboards and admin tools

Editorial principles

• Guides should be useful for learners.
• Commands and config examples should be easy to copy.
• Secrets are never published.
• Mistakes and troubleshooting notes are documented instead of hidden.
• Security-sensitive services are explained carefully.

Important note

This site is educational. Always review configuration examples before using them in production, especially anything related to authentication, DNS, storage, firewall rules, backups, or public exposure.
