nixos-homelab

Nix

Flake-based, reproducible system configurations for a small multi-machine homelab. One box runs dashboards and user-facing services; another provides fast, redundant storage and shares.

Open

Purpose?

This repository is technically for more then just the homelab machines, but its primary use is for 2 systems that run 24/7 in my attic.
They have many services running, but their primary uses are for file storage and networking.

Example features include:

• Network wide AdBlock
• Full feature media server with automatic metadata collection
• Self hosted server for remote access to my machines
• And much more!

Why NixOS?

• Reproducible builds - services and network come back exactly as defined.
• Composable profiles - roles per host (dashboard, storage, desktop) share modules.
• Safe iteration - rollbacks make upgrades and experiments low‑risk.

What does this project contain?

• Flake-based NixOS configurations for multiple machines
• Service modules for Docker, Dashy, Pi-hole, and more
• ZFS-backed NAS setup with Samba/NFS
• Declarative reverse proxy, monitoring, and DNS stack
