The Homelab and OSS Topic

Welcome to the Homelab and Open-Source Software topic!

This is a place to discuss not only open-source projects like Scratch but also Homelab things like Jellyfin.
————————————————————————————————————————————————-
New?:

A homelab is a personal setup where people run self-hosted servers, experiment with software/operating systems, learn networking, or (like most) just tinker for fun.

Open-Source Software (OSS) is just normal software which has its code publicaly avaliable, meaning anyone can study, modify, share it, and (usually) contribute to development.
————————————————————————————————————————————————–
  • Talk about your personal homelab rigs (mine's just an old laptop )
  • Share OSS or projects
  • And, obviously, ask questions about all of this!

I made an open source Scratch mod called LibreKitten, which can run simple websites and APIs. It is also looking for contributors, but I do need to update the development wiki.

Librekitten looks great! It has intrigued me in the past, but I don't have much of a need for Scratch-based servers. Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with JavaScript, so I can't contribute much.

I would like to ask about the server extension. I have some experience with the Flask web-framework, and y'all's server blocks seem to match it similarly. Is the syntax based off of Flask, or is it just coincidence?

Is anyone else the “sysadmin” for their families? I personally run and maintain my family's media server with Jellyfin with hopes to expand to immich in the future.
