Start9 describes StartOS as making it possible for anyone to own a personal server, in the same way Windows and macOS made personal computers accessible. It facilitates discovering, installing, configuring and using a variety of open-source software “without trusting anyone.”
The project states an open-source, self-hosted, private and free model, with source code on GitHub (Start9Labs/start-technologies). Prefab and DIY server options are mentioned, without a hardware list on the page consulted.
