I use Obsidian to document my home lab and self-hosted services, here's how
There are tools built for documenting your home lab, but I love using Obsidian for it instead.

When you start your self-hosting journey, it's not too difficult to keep track of everything. After all, you probably only have a single server with a few services; nothing too crazy. However, as my home lab has grown, I've simply found it too unwieldy to keep track of everything by myself. I've experimented with a few different self-hosted tools to try and keep on top of all of it, but in the end, I went back to Obsidian to track everything.
