Last few weeks have mostly been more vibe-coding and homelabbing. I'll get some more photos up soon hopefully too.

Vibing

1 new app this week, and multiple updates for other apps.

New app "Shelf" replaces Homarr in my homelab stack because I found myself fighting with layouts and features more than I'd like. So of course, I just vibed this up over the weekend. View it here
Some updates to Fold and xaero-sync were shipped, nothing really exciting.
- Fold fixed a CLI conflict with another tool, now the cli is fold-cli instead of just fold.
- xaero-sync added a notification message to tell people who connect that it exists and can be used to sync waypoints and where to get it.

I'm now using Codex to vibe up homelab organisation and management tooling. Specifically ansible playbooks. I always hated putting these together because the amount of reading and trial and error I'd have to go through to get these to run the way I want was painful. Codex just does it.
I've moved to Dockhand for managing my docker stacks across my various docker-enabled VMs (I have 6 now!). I'm still treating my appliance servers like pets over cattle, it's more fun that way. Dockhand is a good middleground; define your stacks in git, sync them to your hosts when you need to.
Picked up a new beefier server, the i7-8700s in my Lenovo Tiny P330s were really struggling under my AI agents load. The new machine was an absolute bargain from my favourite second-hand refurb shop. See the specs on /uses. This one blasts through most AI dev I'm doing and has enough oomph to host a Create Mod Minecraft server for myself and a couple mates.
