Yuvomi is a self-hosted family planner that replaces a dozen paid apps with one home you actually own. Tasks, calendar, meals, recipes, shopping, pantry, budget, documents, health and more, packed into twenty switchable modules that talk to each other. It runs as a single Docker container on any home server or NAS. It stores everything in one SQLite database file. I’ve been running it on my Synology NAS for a few weeks. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Yuvomi on your Synology NAS using Docker & Dockhand.

• STEP 1

Please Support My work by Making a Donation.

• STEP 2

Install Dockhand using my step by step guide. If you already have Dockhand installed on your Synology NAS, skip this STEP. ⚠️Attention: Make sure you have installed the latest Dockhand version.

• STEP 3

Go to File Station and open the docker folder. Inside the docker folder, create one new folder and name it yuvomi. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.

• STEP 4

Now create four new folders inside the yuvomi folder that you have previously created at STEP 3 and name them backups, data, documents, modules. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.

• STEP 5

Open your browser and type in http://synology-ip-address:3866 to connect to your Dockhand container. On the left sidebar, click Stacks then + Create. Follow the instructions in the image below.

• STEP 6

In the Stack name field, type in yuvomi. ⚠️Warning: Type in the name in lowercase letters. The installation process can take up to a few seconds/minutes. It will depend on your Internet speed connection. Follow the instructions in the image below.

Note: Copy Paste the code below in the Dockhand Compose Stack then click Create & Start.

🟢Please Support My work by Making a Donation. Almost 99,9% of the people that install something using my guides forget to support my work, or just ignore STEP 1. I’ve been very honest about this aspect of my work since the beginning: I don’t run any ADS, I don’t require subscriptions, paid or otherwise, I don’t collect IPs, emails, and I don’t have any referral links from Amazon or other merchants. I also don’t have any POP-UPs or COOKIES. I have repeatedly been told over the years how much I have contributed to the community. It’s something I love doing and have been honest about my passion since the beginning. But I also Need The Community to Support me Back to be able to continue doing this work.
