Self-Hosting Authentik: Add Real SSO to Your Homelab
Hey,
Running a homelab with 5+ self-hosted apps and tired of managing separate logins for each one? Today we published a full walkthrough on setting up Authentik — an open-source identity provider that brings proper SSO, OAuth2, SAML, and MFA to your entire stack.
In this guide, Alex covers:
- How Authentik compares to Authelia and Keycloak
- Docker Compose setup with PostgreSQL and Redis
- Integrating Nextcloud via OAuth2/OIDC
- Using the Proxy Outpost to protect any app (including those with no built-in auth)
- Enforcing TOTP and WebAuthn MFA globally or per-application
- Backup strategy and upgrade process
