Hey, I have to „draw“ or make notes of my selfhosting stuff. It runs so smooth that I sometimes really forget where a service is running or how to reach the web-Interface.

For sure I have a password- and link-manager, but I would like another independent note with the structure of my selfhosting.

Usually I use Joplin. Is there a plugin that shows me a kind of a map?

Or are there other apps - maybe wikis - that do it much easier/better than that?

How do you document your selfhosting?

I use Heimdall and Portainer myself, and I'd recommend them both. Portainer is for keeping a visual on Docker and/or Kubernetes containers, while Heimdall acts as a "home page" / front end for your various web GUIs (incl. Portainer).

Hmmm, I have a few dockers, but most stuff is running in lxc‘s (Proxmox). Btw: I tried Heimdall (or Homar?) but I had to enter all services by hand. Is there a way or an app to automate that?

Sadly, not to my knowledge. It's an app-by-app process. I could see an Ansible play or similar potentially fulfilling such a role, but I'm not aware of any existing projects.
