Hi c/selfhosted,

I have another project idea. However, before I start I want to make sure there is interest in the community and a similar project does not exist yet.

I was thinking about a “compose” website that contains the compose files and basic information of the projects listed in the awesome-selfhosted list. Users can search for projects, browse by categories, etc. In my opinion when finding a new project you want to try out it, is a bit cumbersome to find the corresponding compose file to get started.

Let me know if there is any interest in such a project. Also I have no idea how I would name the project, so give me your best suggestions :). Thanks!

I’m not the host or author of this one, but I know it already covers what you are wanting to do. ;)

Not sure how many people would directly seek out a website like this but if it shows up in google searches its probably useful. You could also probably also source compose files from github automatically (obviously with a disclaimer) to help quickly get examples for containers.

The website has one of those cringe nft monkeys, but otherwise the site looks good

You might want to take a look at https://community-scripts.github.io/ProxmoxVE/ . That’s exactly what you want, but without Docker. It uses Proxmox / LXC / VMs and is really, really awesome for selfhosting.

I’m really happy that the community stepped up and continued his great work.

It’s not actually going that great, there is already infighting on the direction of the scripts.

I’d assume the projects either have a docker-compose example in the readme or in the repository files alongside the actual project.
Is that so uncommon?

It’s not that it’s uncommon, but slightly different for each project.

I collated library would be kinda cool.

That said, I don’t know how much utility this project would have.

It might be cool, but it seems like it would be missing the context and documentation that would be present in it’s project repo.

If only there were some way you could kind of refer viewers to the primary documentation for the project.

Yeah, that’s fair. Very convoluted and difficult documented.
