BCA student (sem 5), from India, aiming at cloud/SRE. This is the live state of the lab:

  • VPS (2GB DO droplet) — Pangolin + CrowdSec public edge, SearXNG, Vaultwarden, it-tools, tailnet-only DNS.
  • Laptop (tailnet-only) — Immich, Navidrome.
  • Recently — got CrowdSec's in-band WAF working, tuned SearXNG to tolerate a datacenter IP, rewrote the homelab docs.
  • Next — internship hunt (sem 6), Terraform on the VPS, blog the whole build.
