Thinking of building a database of "stuff" that I have at home + some other family households. Multiple accounts with private and shared inventories. - eviltoast

The use case is basically so that all my family members we can check that “John has an old laptop collecting dust” or “Mary has this specific tool that I’d love to use for my current project”.

It would be awesome if you could also have a private inventory, aside from the “shared knowledge”.

So, what do you guys use for this? Maybe it does not have to be self hosted, but I have a sense the best solutions for this use case are.

    Homebox - before we relocate - whenever that is, I will be printing labels and putting them under and behind my stuff, scanning it into there and then will use that to keep track of our items after the move to know what is in which box etc.

    NocoDB Self Hosted (I use this for a few things) - started out with my network ip’s I have on my servers and ports for my containers and most recently a sleep log.

    Just a couple there.

      Any idea how Homebox compares to Grocy? I want to try both, but gave up on trying to use snipe-it a while back because of the effort needed to input everything. Both of these look simpler though

      Ive started using homebox and i like it. Granted, i only use it for myself right now, not sure how it works for multiple people and public vs private repos
