Server App Configs

Podman deployment configuration for two homelab servers: Dankserver and Dankclaw.

This repository tracks the container stacks for both hosts. Git is the single source of truth. Edits flow through this repo, then deploy to the targets with scripts/deploy.sh. This mirrors the workflow of the vllmScripts repository.

Hosts

Host	IP	Role	OS
Dankserver	192.168.0.235	Media & library stack	Ubuntu 24.04
Dankclaw	192.168.0.143	AI, search & development stack	Ubuntu 26.04
