# Minh141120/awesome-homelab > A curated list of free tools, real configs, and learning materials for self-hosting with GitOps: your homelab described as a Git repository, with a machine making reality match the files. - Magnitude: 4.4 out of 10 — Early signal - Stars: 72 total · +0 stars today, ≈ 43 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Learning & lists · License: CC0-1.0 · Created: 2026-10-01 · Last push: 2026-10-01 - GitHub: https://github.com/Minh141120/awesome-homelab · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/Minh141120/awesome-homelab ## Useful for - Build a home Kubernetes cluster layer by layer, from hardware and Proxmox to Flux and apps - Set up a GitOps loop with Renovate, CI, and Flux to automate app updates - Study real homelab repo configs from others as examples for your own infrastructure ## Why it’s here - 0 stars so far today, about 43 expected by the end of the day. - The spike has held for 2 days in a row — not a one-off blip. - The repository is 1 day old and already has 72 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet. - Top new repositories this week: #158. - About 9 forks a day — people are taking the code. ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 7 - Issues and pull requests: 3 - Watchers: 0 - Average over the last week: 48 per day - Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks) - Stars in the last hour (measured): 2 ## Stars per day, last 6 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-09-27 … 2026-10-02: 0, 0, 0, 19, 53, 0 ## Spotted in now - Top new repositories this week: #158 ## More in this category 1. **public-apis/public-apis** — 4.4 · Steady · Learning & lists · Python · +0 stars today, ≈ 325 by evening A community-curated list of free public APIs across dozens of categories, from animals and anime to finance, geocoding and weather.

Full card: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/rohitg00/ai-engineering-from-scratch.md --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
