What is it?

Deployrr is a command-line tool that automates the setup of a Docker and Docker Compose environment for self-hosted homelab servers. It provides a guided interface for installing containerized applications, so users do not need to write Compose files by hand for each service.

The tool includes pre-configured support for more than 160 applications, including Traefik with Let's Encrypt certificates, Authentik, Authelia, TinyAuth, Portainer, Plex, Jellyfin, Gluetun, Uptime-Kuma, Homepage and CrowdSec. It also offers reverse proxy configuration with internal, external or hybrid exposure modes, multi-server and multi-domain support, and remote share mounting over SMB, NFS and Rclone.

Deployrr is installed through npm/npx or a standalone bash script, and it targets Ubuntu and Debian systems as its primary platform. Some features, such as advanced security and backup options, are tied to free and paid license tiers.
