CasaOS

About

CasaOS is an open-source Home Cloud system, originating from China, built upon the Docker ecosystem and designed for home scenarios, aiming to be the world's most simple, easy-to-use, and elegant solution. It is free and open-source, supporting platforms like Linux, Raspberry Pi, and Orange Pi. Key features include privacy-focused operations, a lightweight design, home automation, server management, a command-line interface, and a dark mode. It offers robust Docker support, allowing users to import Docker CLI and compose files beyond its integrated App-Store. Users praise its cool, slick design and ease of use, functioning as an amazing web interface server for hosting Docker containers rather than a full distribution. It simplifies installation on various Linux distributions and provides a fast, simple web file manager with real system statistics, distinguishing it from projects like Heimdall. While simple, some users note a lack of extensive configuration options and limited documentation, alongside concerns about background communications to China.
