Welcome to the first-ever Home Lab Explorer Challenge Series! This is a fun idea for all of our group members. From installing your first Docker container or orchestrating apps in Kubernetes, there will be a weekly challenge that fits your skill level. The idea is simple: pick a challenge, commit to completing it in the week, share your progress, and help others do the same. This is about learning together, building cool things, and supporting each other. Plus, you’ll walk away with new skills and maybe even some bragging rights! Eventually, we may even have a raffle or giveaway for the most challenge points, etc! 🧠 How It Works 1. Pick a Challenge - Choose the challenge that fits your current skill level or pushes you just a bit outside your comfort zone. 2. Declare It - Reply to this post in the “Challenges” category saying, “I’m doing Challenge #2, i.e. – Nginx Proxy Manager ingress controller!” 3. Do It - Tackle the challenge. Ask questions. Share screenshots. Post roadblocks and wins. 4. Wrap Up - When done, write a short post about what you learned, what worked, what didn’t, and maybe even share your config or a tip for others. Week 1 - Challenge Tiers ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Level 0 🟢 Beginner - Hardware and wiring challenge - Before getting into the software side, if there is a challenge that you would like to take on that is related to hardware, cabling, or other layer 1 type configurations that you would like to challenge yourself with, this would be great!
