Tailscale’d Into Homelabbing
Having my own homelab was something I wanted to try for a long time. However, I just couldn’t get started. Mostly because I kept overthinking it. How will I handle dynamic IPs? Do I need something like a local DNS on my router for that? Even if I solve things inside the home, how am I supposed to access it remotely? Do I need port forwarding at the NAT layer? And what about TLS certificates, how do I even manage those without using a public certificate authority?

My declarative multi-machine homelab, explained | Bas Nijholt
Friends keep asking how my homelab works, so I wrote it all down, starting from zero. Four NixOS machines run about 150 containers behind one Traefik front door, and with WireGuard and my own Headscale server I reach my self-hosted services from anywhere over encrypted HTTPS connections, while strangers on the internet get nothing. The part I think is the coolest is the balance: everything is declarative and lives in git, but with as little machinery as possible.
End-to-end encrypted relays for OCapN — Spritely Institute
Creating a direct connection between any two computers (not just from client to server) over the internet is notoriously difficult. Many home networks are behind NATs which prevent new inbound connections. Sometimes these NATs are from the ISP (carrier-grade NATs) which are impossible to work around with port forwarding and/or UPnP. While hole punching techniques can break through NATs, it's far from guaranteed. Thus, we need something that works in the general case: relays.
