This is a quite popular repo of scripts used by the selfhosting community, so I think it's worth sharing it here. It's unfortunately saddening news related to tteck's health. I wish him the best, and that he enjoys his well deserved rest in peace.

Dear Community,

I wanted to share a personal update. I’ve recently transitioned into hospice care and, as a result, will be slowing down the development of this project. While I’m grateful for the progress we’ve made together, I recognize that I’ll be taking a step back for some rest and reflection during this time.

Thank you for your continued support, encouragement, and understanding. Your dedication to the community and this project means the world to me, and I am grateful for each of you.

Warm regards,

tteck/tteckster

Hospice is end of life care.

I had to look it up since I'm not a native English speaker.Truly a sad day for selfhosters, his scripts have helped the community tremendously, I hope the best for him and his family.

The bricks this man laid paved the way for myself and many others to build their own home labs. He's no doubt had a significant influence furthering this hobby out of being niche. The mfing 🐐

Sorry to read this, I use his scripts and had no idea. Many thanks and well wishes for him and his family.

I'd never heard of this, so I looked:

These scripts empower users to create a Linux container or virtual machine interactively, providing choices for both simple and advanced configurations.

Isn't this what the native Proxmox web interface already does?

The proxmox interface let's you make the containers, but you have to install the software you want to host in that container after creation.

These scripts let you run a script that makes the container and also installs what you want to host within the container and does the setup.

I used their script to set up a home assistant vm, you run the script and it downloads the HaOS install media and does the install in the VM for you, preconfigured, and starts it so all I had to do was go access the web interface.
