My personal homelab infrastructure, fully managed with NixOS and Clan. This repository contains all configurations for my servers, desktops, and network devices.
This is a complete NixOS homelab setup that manages:
- Servers: Public VPS (Hetzner, Infomaniak), physical servers, Raspberry Pi
- Desktops: Personal laptops and workstations
Everything is declarative, reproducible, and version-controlled whenever possible.
I'm using Clan to simplify infrastructure management:
Backbone of independent infrastructure
Or as I like to say:
Kill the cloud, build your darkcloud ☁️
→ Learn more about Clan and why I use it
- Simple host management: Easy inventory system
- Automatic secrets: Built-in secret generation and management
- Backup made easy: Integrated backup solution
- Declarative: Everything in code, no manual steps
I follow a hybrid approach:
- NixOS services first: Most applications run as native NixOS services
- Podman when needed: Some apps use containers to:
- Use plugins or features not well-supported in NixOS (e.g., DokuWiki)
- Avoid service interruptions during system updates
- Maintain stability during version upgrades
This gives me the best of both worlds: NixOS reproducibility with container flexibility.
