umbrelOS
A beautiful home server OS for self-hosting
umbrel.com »
Buy an Umbrel Home or install on a Raspberry Pi 5 or any x86 system.
At Umbrel, we believe that everyone should be able to enjoy the convenience and benefits of the cloud, without giving up ownership and control of their data.
To achieve our vision, we're building a new kind of a home server OS. Instead of paying ransoms for storing your data on someone else's computer while they auction it off to advertisers — you can now easily spin up a server and self-host your data and services at home.
Just like the cloud, but one that you own and control.
