Minecraft Project Progress in my Homelab

Just recently we saw what Gemini 3 Pro can do for websites. I decided that i have to use this to my advantage to build the Minecraft Server Management Dashboard of my dreams. I wanted to have my own project that i manage in a Development Environment and later send it to a Test, Production Environments to understand the big picture ideas. I got these ideas from a book i recently finished called The Phoenix Project, i'll make another post for it later in the future.

So far i'm pulling modpacks via Modrinth API and be able to show every modpack's descriptions so i can understand what are their contents.

Even though i'm gonna work on the website itself simultaneously, this week goals are:

On every push to Github repo, Github Actions runs tests and build docker images for backend & frontend individually then runs the containers on my server pc
Give it a domain name via reverse proxy with Nginx
Expose the metrics from containers and put them in Prometheus so i can watch them on Grafana

I tweak and setup the website with AI and i like how it looks so far but the automation, the DevOps part excites me the most 😂 Can't wait to see how everything works by itself without me doing anything 😎

If you have any recommendations for DevOps structure, i'd love to hear them out. This will be my long term project for my homelab but i think it will be worth doing since it's so much fun!
