## What it is
A collection of hands-on, example-driven guides for self-hosting popular applications (Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, Jellyfin, Wireguard, etc.) using Docker Compose and Caddy reverse proxy. Each guide provides ready-to-use compose files with configuration done via .env files and bind mounts.

## Use cases
- self-host nextcloud with docker compose
- set up caddy reverse proxy with automatic https
- host my own password manager with vaultwarden
- run jellyfin media server in docker
- set up wireguard vpn server in docker
- learn docker compose by example
- self-host monitoring with prometheus grafana loki
- back up docker data with borg or kopia

## When to choose
- you want copy-paste docker-compose setups for common self-hosted apps
- you're setting up a homelab on a Linux server and want detailed step-by-step guides
- you want a consistent pattern (Caddy + .env + bind mounts) across many services

## When to avoid
- you need Kubernetes or swarm-based deployments
- you want a maintained software product rather than documentation
- you need Windows or macOS host instructions

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: self-hosted, deployment, developer-tools, documentation
- domain: self-hosted, tutorials, awesome-lists
- platform: self-hosted, cli
- tags: docker-compose, caddy, reverse-proxy, guide-by-example, tutorials, homelab, devops, docker, linux
