One of the questions I get often is: so I built my home lab. What do I do with it? And it’s one of my favorite questions to answer. Every week I host several live Q&A calls in KubeCraft. And this question comes up regularly. During these mentorship sessions, I teach my students a process that you won't find anywhere else. So instead of just giving you a list of apps to run, I’ll share my whole thought process so you can decide for yourself. I think that will serve you better than a list of apps. ​ But before we jump in, I should let you know that I'm only accepting 10 new students in December. If you want to get direct mentorship from me, CLICK HERE to claim your spot. I'll help you land a remote, 6-figure DevOps job so you can live the life of your dreams. ​ What is a home lab anyway? First of all, let’s think about what a home lab is. One big misconception people have is that home labs need to be big server racks with thousands of dollars of equipment. They think you need to run 5 node Kubernetes clusters before you can even call it a home lab. This is completely false. My home lab started with a ThinkPad T430. An old laptop that was gathering dust in a closet. I installed Linux on there, and ran Linkding in a Docker container. I was so proud. I had my own little application that I could run. I was self-hosting. And it all started from there. ​ Solve Problems You Already Have When I get the question, “what should I run?”, my first reaction is always to solve problems you already have in your life. The reason why I ended up self-hosting Linkding was because I was switching browsers so often. I would sometimes have three different browsers running. One on my phone, one on my laptop, and one on my main workstation. I needed a place to store my bookmarks that was independent of the browser. And after using Raindrop for a while, I somehow discovered Linkding. I’ve been using it for over 3 years now.
