Homebox is the inventory and organization system built for the Home User! - eviltoast

Homebox is the inventory and organization system built for the Home User! With a focus on simplicity and ease of use, Homebox is the perfect solution for your home inventory, organization, and management needs. While developing this project I’ve tried to keep the following principles in mind:

Simple - Homebox is designed to be simple and easy to use. No complicated setup or configuration required. Use either a single docker container, or deploy yourself by compiling the binary for your platform of choice. Blazingly

Fast - Homebox is written in Go which makes it extremely fast and requires minimal resources to deploy. In general idle memory usage is less than 50MB for the whole container.

Portable - Homebox is designed to be portable and run on anywhere. We use SQLite and an embedded Web UI to make it easy to deploy, use, and backup.

    Homebox is fundamentally different from docuwiki. Hyper focused on “where do o find ‘x’” and really great for that purpose! I especially like that when you add an item like a furnace there is a maintenance log option. Pretty sweet

      That sounds awesome. Does it have maintenance reminders and consumable part descriptions/part numbers? I can never remember different filters I need for various things (water, fridge, furnace, cars, etc).

        Yes you can schedule and record maintenance logs. For my air filter I just threw the model number for the filters in the description or a custom field, as I don’t plan on keeping an inventory of filters for it, though you could in theory add an item for the consumable parts and make their parent item be the thing they go in. You could then define in the item for those consumable parts, the place in your house where you store them.

          Sounds a lot like Netbox, for network management. You can define data centers and racks and equipment and sub equipment as well as the actual network information like what cable is plugged into which port on which device, VLANs, IP addresses, subnets, BPG ASNs, etc.
