Comment on What webapps do you selfhost that aren't media/game servers?

I self-host web apps I write myself? ¯\(ツ)/¯
I’m just starting to get into this myself. I made one so my family can easily check the status of my media server and send a movie, show, or music request to sonarr, radarr, and soularr(WIP) so they don’t have to bug me when they want something and it also helps them to feel they have more agency in the process. It’s also pretty useful for me to be able to easily download things instead on the go instead of keeping a neverending list.
What kind of apps do you write?
Set up Overseerr.
I don’t see how that’s easier or better, but feel free to change my mind. As it is now no one needs to download a separate app or have multiple logins. They just go to the URL and there’s the status and a form to type in what they want the arrs to start searching for.
It’s like the difference between using Plex and a file browser to find a movie/show to watch.
I believe that functionality exists already if you are using Plex; via RSS sync.

I used to get the light prices on my phone widget via a public api. Some years ago they closed the api and started asking for full name and id in order to get api access. So I just made a scrapper that takes the numbers I want from their website and serves an API for the widget.
That’s the only self made app I self host, but I’m quite proud of it.
