From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Is there a "universal" web UI for custom Linux NASes? (infosec.pub)

Got me thinking, cuz I've done my own solutions (not the popular ones, like OMV and the likes) and they work just fine, I really have no trouble managing them through the terminal, but I thought about other people (maybe people that like more managing things though a web UI) and I was like "is there something like this 🤔?".

The other reason I'm asking is because I also freelance as IT solution/support and sometimes I do custom solutions for clients, like a NAS, and I would like to ease things a little user side. Sure, that will cut down on my fees, but I like client satisfaction and I think they will appreciate it ☺️.

Free/TrueNAS.

It doesn't support BTRFS 🤷.

Maybe cockpit?

I am looking into that, but it depends heavilly on systemd... might use it in combo with Debian installs.

There's things like Unraid and Synology that have their own UI. But they have some limitations, for example Synology requires one of their devices, doesn't run on generic ones.

There's XPnology, but as I said, I like using my own solutuons (choose the distro and build on that).
