## What it is
RackPeek is a CLI tool and web UI for documenting and managing home lab and small-scale IT infrastructure. It tracks hardware, services, networks, and their relationships in a scriptable YAML-based format without enterprise bloat.

## Use cases
- document my home lab infrastructure
- track servers and services in my homelab
- manage IT inventory as code
- discover and document network devices
- create a home lab network diagram and inventory
- replace spreadsheets for tracking my self-hosted services

## When to choose
- you run a home lab or small IT environment and need lightweight infrastructure documentation
- you want infrastructure inventory stored as code in YAML for version control
- you prefer a simple tool without enterprise CMDB complexity or proprietary lock-in

## When to avoid
- you need enterprise-grade CMDB with change management and compliance workflows
- you require automated real-time network discovery and monitoring at scale
- you need a full IT asset management system with licensing and procurement tracking
