You don't need to buy expensive servers or a dedicated PC to start your homelab. Your existing Windows 11 desktop is already a powerful server, and in this video, I'll show you how to unlock its full potential.

We'll break down the two best ways to start running homelab services right now, on your only PC. First, I'll show you the "easy mode" using Docker Desktop—a way to run apps like Uptime Kuma in minutes, with absolutely no Linux skills required.

Then, for those who want to go to the next level, I'll show you the "pro mode" by enabling and configuring Hyper-V, the powerful virtualization tool built right into Windows 11. I'll walk you through every single step, from enabling the feature and setting up a virtual switch to installing and running two full Linux VMs (Ubuntu and NixOS) at the same time, all from your main PC.

Stop waiting and start building. This is the fastest way to build your confidence and your homelab today.
