Reading earlier comments in this community made me consider documenting the workings of my homelab to some extent, ie. docker configuration, credentials, ports and links of my services. I’ve tried to make it consistent and organised but it still feels half baked and insufficient. Everyone suggests documenting everything you do in your homelab but don’t state how. Since I’ve hardly had experience running my own server, I would really appreciate observing the blueprint of some other fellow selfhoster for copying or taking inspiration from rather than considering documentation to be ‘left as an exercise for the reader’.

    Everyone will have their own system.

    I save all my credentials in Bitwarden/Vaultwarden and take notes in Joplin.

    The good thing about YOUR homelab is that YOU’RE taking notes solely for YOURSELF and only YOU know how YOU work and how YOU organize YOUR thoughts.
