The project#
Bytebros.nl is the digital playground of Igor, my former teacher and friend, and me. Here we try out our ideas on a complete self-hosted stack, built around three services: Nextcloud All-in-One for file storage, collaboration and Nextcloud Talk for chat and video calling, Forgejo as a git server for our own repositories, and Mailcow for e-mail.
The approach#
Each service runs as its own Docker stack, managed independently so an update or outage in one service doesn’t affect the others. From installation and configuration to ongoing maintenance, updates and backups — everything is self-managed.
The result#
An independent, fully self-hosted environment for storage, collaboration, version control and e-mail, with no dependency on external SaaS services.
