Preface

Self Host Blocks intends to help you self host any service you would like with best practices out of the box.

::: {.note} Self Host Blocks is hosted on GitHub. If you encounter problems or bugs then please report them on the issue tracker.

Feel free to join the dedicated Matrix room matrix.org#selfhostblocks. :::

Self Host Blocks provides building blocks, each providing part of what a self hosted app should do (SSO, HTTPS, backup, etc.). It also provides some services that are already integrated with all those building blocks (Nextcloud, Home Assistant, etc.).

  • You are new to self hosting and want pre-configured services to deploy easily. Look at the services section.
  • You are a seasoned self-hoster but want to enhance some services you deploy already. Go to the blocks section.
  • You are a user of Self Host Blocks but would like to use your own implementation for a block. Head over to the matrix channel (this is WIP).

Self Host Blocks uses the full power of NixOS modules to achieve these goals. Blocks and service are both NixOS modules.
