Welcome to My Homelab
This wiki serves as the central hub for documenting the setup, configuration, and ongoing projects in my homelab. The goal of this space is to keep track of hardware configurations, software deployments, network setups, and other related topics.

Homelab Overview
My homelab is built around hardware and software components that support a variety of use cases, including:
- Virtualisation: Proxmox hypervisor running multiple VMs for various applications and services.
- Networking: Managed LAN with Omada-controlled access points and a managed switch.
- Automation: Home Assistant running as a VM on Proxmox, Zigbee network for the majority of smart devices.
- Storage: TrueNAS VM for file management, Plex media, and Time Machine backups.
