I will set up your home server with docker and self hosted
Creative and Professional
About this Gig
I set up Docker and the self-hosted apps you choose on your computer, server, or NAS, and I document everything so you can run it without me.
WHAT I CAN SET UP
- Nextcloud with OnlyOffice: private file sync and documents
- AdGuard Home or NextDNS: network-wide ad blocking and DNS
- Tailscale: secure remote access from anywhere
- Uptime Kuma and ntfy: monitoring that alerts you when something breaks
- Borg: automatic, versioned backups to a NAS or second disk
- Caddy on a VPS: your own domains with HTTPS
- Another Docker app? Ask. If it runs in Docker, I can likely deploy it.
EVERY ORDER INCLUDES
- Docker and Docker Compose
- Your apps deployed and tested
- Written docs: what runs where, updating, backups
- 30 minutes of one-on-one consulting
- 7 days of support after delivery
Message me before ordering. Orders placed before messaging will be canceled.
Bigger builds, like multiple servers or a full self-hosted ecosystem, get a custom offer.
For your privacy and security, you will create the access to your computer or NAS that I'll be using. Once the project is complete, you will revoke that access and I will no longer be able to get in.
Looking forward to getting your server up and running.

FAQ
1. Do I need powerful hardware?
No, the hardware requirements are minimum. You do need to run it on a Linux machine. If your machine can't run what you want, I'll let you know before the project starts.
2. Is my data private?
Yes. Everything runs on your hardware. I configure Tailscale for remote access so nothing has to be exposed to the open internet.
3. What do you need from me?
ou create the access (SSH key or a temporary account, your choice) and revoke it at handover. We finish with a walkthrough of everything that was installed.
4. What are the ongoing costs?
The apps are free and open source and run on your hardware. A small VPS for the reverse proxy is the only optional extra, and it costs a few dollars a month.
5. Will my apps survive a reboot?
Yes. Everything runs as Docker containers that start automatically, and I test that after a restart before I hand the server back.
6. What happens after delivery?
You get written documentation covering updates, backups, and troubleshooting. Every order includes 7 days of support. After that, I can fix a one-time issue or set up ongoing tech support, both for an additional cost.
