Why Yantr?
Most homelab platforms (like Umbrel, CasaOS, or Proxmox) demand total hardware control. They want to be the Operating System, requiring you to dedicate and wipe a machine just to run a few network apps.

Yantr flips the model.

It is a lightweight, self-hosted App Store that runs alongside your existing OS. Whether you are using a daily-driver MacBook, a gaming PC, or an existing Linux server, Yantr lets you spin up powerful software instantly without taking over your machine.

Zero OS Footprint: Yantr never touches your host filesystem. Everything runs exclusively in isolated Docker containers and virtual volumes.
No Dependency Hell: Run complex AI models, media servers, and databases simultaneously. Because everything is isolated, you will never face a Python, Node, or CUDA version conflict.
Install, Use, Destroy: Spin up an app, use it, and delete it. No leftover registry keys, background services, or hidden configuration files scattered across your system.
