Introduction

There are many impressive dashboards (awesome-selfhosted), which are perfect for our needs. However, for non-technical people/geeks/computer enthusiasts/dev...., it can be difficult to understand all the features offered by these dashboards. That's why I created NOFU in 'scratch-an-itch' mode. Although it may not be perfect for everyone, it meets my needs and those of my family circle.

I also wanted a place where my family could find all my services with a quick documentation on my infrastructure (software used, what it's for, where it's located, where backups are stored...), in case I stop functioning one day. So that they can recover the family data or call someone to help them.
