Choose a serverCopy Anchor Link

Your devices need Tailscale, with HTTPS certificates enabled for the tailnet. Setup checks this.

• Home lab first: run ghcr.io/notsuhas/envden in Docker on an always-on host.
• Laptop first: run the server as a login service on this machine.

Use an always-on host if you have one. Other devices can sync with a laptop server only while that laptop is awake.
