Guys, OP is asking for recommendations for books about self-hosting, not recommendations on how to self-host books.
It's ok. A hard left was made a long time ago, so I just went with it. LOL
Got it. Never even thought about looking into books when I was getting into the hobby. It was all just searching and following online guides. I am curious if there's anything out there other than the typical linux/networking stuff.
My god man, I need to add that site to my list. I don't need it as I've been homelabing for many years, also support a SaaS app to keep me sharp.
But that site should be everywhere
I use calibre to organize then i dump them into calibre-web. From there we make shelves (my wife and I) and sync with our Kobos.
Yeah, I settled on Calibre Web, which is not quite as ugly as Calibre Desktop with the themepark addon.
Theme park add on? Tell me more!
ThemePark is a docker container that has a multitude of themes for many different applications. To add the theme for Calibre, you'll access Settings and then Edit Basic Configuration, and insert 'theme-park.dev' in the 'Trusted Hosts' slot, thusly"
That gives you a more pleasing asthetic to Calibre: theme
ETA: List of supported apps: https://docs.theme-park.dev/themes/sonarr/
I don’t use calibre web yet. I only use calibre’s inbuilt web service thing. Does theme park work with that too?
Also, I have calibre running on windows and I don’t run docker on that (for reasons). So can I use calibre web on a separate system on the network and have it connect to the calibre db somehow over the wire?
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
