## What it is
A LinuxServer.io Docker image that packages Ubiquiti's UniFi Network Application (network controller) for self-hosting. It lets users run the UniFi controller for managing UniFi access points, switches, and gateways in a container with regular updates and easy configuration.

## Use cases
- self-host the UniFi network controller in Docker
- manage UniFi access points and switches without a Cloud Key
- run the UniFi Network Application on a home server or NAS
- migrate a UniFi controller to a containerized setup
- keep the UniFi controller updated automatically via container releases

## When to choose
- you want to run the UniFi controller on your own hardware instead of a UniFi console
- you already manage services with Docker and want the controller in the same stack
- you want a community-maintained image with timely updates and PUID/PGID support

## When to avoid
- you use only UniFi cloud management via the UniFi app and site manager
- you cannot run Docker or containers on your hardware
- you need official Ubiquiti support for the controller deployment

## Facets
