About this tag
Homelab monitoring covers the tools and practices enthusiasts use to keep small self-hosted environments observable and healthy. The tagged content centers on Grafana dashboards fed by Prometheus metrics, with a practical example of mounting a portable monitor on a Proxmox host as a dedicated, always-on kiosk view.
