Docker Desktop and Pop-OS
Installing Docker-Desktop on PopOS. As it isn't in the Pop!-Shop we need to add the repo and some other packages. The actual installation of Docker-Desktop is the recommended way for any Ubuntu installation.
Posts about what I test and run on my servers. I also use Dodge and/or Portainer for management. Alpine images are the smallest.

Another ultralight NAS installation. Samba is the SMB server on Linux, introduced in 1992. Everyone needs storage, and samba is what we use for Windows storage. This one uses a small VM with Docker .
Backup
Apple MacBook backups to a Docker based VM, `timemachine`. Adding the Samba share and then add the storage to your Time Machine as usual.
Basics
Do you require a certain set of files with you, regardless of the device you're using, be it a different PC or even your mobile device? You don't have to fumble with USB sticks or cloud storage or NextCloud. File/directory synchronization is done automatically by Syncthing including version control.

Your choice between Proxmox and XCP-ng will depend on your specifics and priorities, including performance, user-friendliness, and your infrastructure. Both offer a wide range of similar features. Xen Orchestra in a Proxmox VM with QGA and HTTPS or in Docker. Moving from VMware to XCP to Proxmox.
Docker
The workhorse on any lab is Docker. With Dockge the stacks are easy to deploy and manage. I run this as a script when I need a Docker VM.
Build
Running a NAS in a Proxmox VM might need a web based File Browser. The filebrowser is the easiest and smallest to use. The filebrowser run on docker. Linux, macOS, and Windows are also supported. #filebrowser #docker #proxmox
Docker
Dockge simplifies Docker management, particularly when dealing with Docker stacks. You can perform tasks like creating, editing, starting, stopping, restarting, and deleting Docker containers and services through a web terminal.
Update
Version 5.0 is released as beta. This is the tool I use to spin up VM's with/with out Docker or other parts. You can use it by just editing a few variables to create VM's or Templates or Kubernetes clusters. New app are Dockge, licenced Docker and Portainer.

A Kubernetes cluster is a set of node machines for running containerized applications. If you’re running Kubernetes, you’re running a cluster. It's easy to make it HA with a Load Balanser. #k8s #kubernetes #ubuntu2204
Build
Git is a fantastic system for code making, storing and sharing. I need an internal for my K8s cluster and some internal projects and settings. #gitea

Homepage dashboard is a modern, secure, highly customizable application dashboard. Easily configured via YAML files or discovery via docker labels. The number of apps it supports with widgets is impressive. And the way of using API Tokens in stead of user/password is admirable. #dashboard
