Original Summary

Hi, Today I launched udon.sh , I started building it about eight months ago after moving my homelab from Unraid to a Mac Mini. These machines are small, quiet, power-efficient and surprisingly capable. What I missed was a polished way to manage macOS remotely. Linux has tools like Cockpit, Unraid, Umbrel and CasaOS. I couldn’t find a comparable management experience built around macOS and Apple Silicon, so I started building Udon. It gives you a web interface for managing containers, apps, Homebrew packages, storage and system resources, with terminal and remote desktop access. A native phone companion app is planned for later this month. In the current AI era, I think management tools should also provide a proper interface for assistants and agents. Udon includes an entirely optional AI assistant and a broad set of MCP tools for inspecting the machine, diagnosing issues and performing administrative actions. It’s still pre-release and I’m building it alone, so expect rough edges and occasional breakage. Development is moving at a high cadence, with feedback helping shape what comes next. During this pre-launch phase, I’m giving out free licenses to anyone willing to try it and provide feedback. Please reach out if you’re interested. The long-term goal is a polished management experience that feels at home in the Apple ecosystem. I know that’s a long haul, but that’s what I’m building toward. If you run a Mac as a server, I’d love to hear how you manage it today, what Udon is missing or what you think I’m getting wrong. Feel free to reach out directly too. I’m always happy to chat, answer questions and hear your thoughts or criticism. Thanks for taking a look!   submitted by   /u/olirehacek [link]   [comments]
