In this video, I walk through how I’m documenting my entire home lab as code using RackPeek and why this approach makes so much more sense than traditional diagrams and spreadsheets. Instead of static PNG rack diagrams that quickly become outdated, I’m now defining racks, servers, switches, and hardware details in structured YAML files that live in Git and behave just like infrastructure as code. I’ll show you how RackPeek works, how to deploy it quickly with Docker Compose.
