Homelab as a control plane

A platform idea that survives a constrained homelab is more likely to survive production.

Keep a permanent, reproducible environment for testing platform changes end to end.

Virtualised nodes under a single hypervisor, provisioned declaratively and reconciled from Git, with the same observability contract as production.

Placeholder — implementation notes pending.

Placeholder — findings pending.

Automate full rebuild from an empty hypervisor and measure how long recovery takes.
