## What it is
umbrelOS is a home server operating system for self-hosting apps on your own hardware, with an app store of 300+ one-click installable applications. It lets users store files and photos, run AI agents and local LLMs, and operate a Bitcoin node from a personal home cloud.

## Use cases
- self-host my files and photos at home instead of paying for cloud storage
- run a personal home server OS on a Raspberry Pi 5 or x86 machine
- install self-hosted apps with one click from an app store
- run my own Bitcoin node and connect wallets to it
- run local AI agents and Ollama on my own hardware
- replace cloud services with a private home cloud I control

## When to choose
- you want a polished, beginner-friendly home server experience with an app store
- you want to self-host files, photos, media, and services on a Raspberry Pi or x86 box
- you want to run a Bitcoin/Lightning node alongside your other self-hosted apps

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose OS with full root-level control over the underlying system
- you want to self-host on non-Linux platforms like Windows or macOS natively
- you need first-class support and all features without buying Umbrel hardware, since DIY installs are best-effort
