InvenTree is an inventory management system for electronics manufacturers, makerspaces, and small-to-medium businesses. The hierarchical part categorization system organizes components into unlimited nested categories, while stock items tracked across cascading locations and sub-locations provide instant visibility into current inventory levels, with optional serial number tracking for individual item traceability and acceptance testing. Intelligent BOM management calculates sub-part requirements, validates availability against current stock, supports multi-format BOM upload including KiCad integration, and generates detailed bills of materials with full database enrichment. Build orders consume BOM-allocated stock to produce assembled parts with step-by-step work order tracking, while purchase orders manage supplier relationships with pricing history, lead times, and automatic stock receipt processing. The modern React frontend built with Mantine, TanStack Query, and Zustand provides responsive data tables, tree-select navigation, a preview drawer, and a snippet editor. The extensible plugin system supports 19 mixin types including BarcodeMixin for scanner integration, LabelPrintingMixin for Zebra and Brother printers, AppMixin for custom database tables, and ScheduleMixin for periodic background tasks. Companion mobile apps on Android and iOS provide barcode scanning and stock operations in the warehouse. Docker Compose deploys with PostgreSQL, MySQL, or MariaDB backends behind any reverse proxy. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

With over 7,000 GitHub stars and active community maintenance through version 0.26.0 released in June 2026, Homebox fills the gap between inadequate spreadsheets and overcomplicated enterprise asset management by providing a purpose-built inventory system designed specifically for home users, families, and small groups. The Go backend with SQLite storage deploys as a single Docker container consuming under 50MB of RAM at idle, running on hardware as modest as a Raspberry Pi while the responsive web interface adapts seamlessly across desktops, tablets, and smartphones. The entity-based architecture introduced in v0.26 unifies items and locations into a shared structure supporting custom fields, attachments, entity types, and reusable templates for consistent data entry across inventory categories. QR code generation creates printable labels that scan with any smartphone camera to instantly display item details, photos, serial numbers, and associated documents. Warranty tracking records purchase dates, prices, and expiration dates while maintenance scheduling sends reminders for recurring service tasks. Location hierarchies organize items spatially with nested sub-locations, and flexible label tagging enables cross-cutting categorization beyond physical placement. Multi-user support shares collections with family members or roommates with OIDC single sign-on integration for Active Directory, Okta, and other identity providers. CSV import and export handles bulk operations, while the full REST API enables automation and third-party integrations. Collection-level ZIP export packages complete inventories with attachments for backup or migration. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

DumbAssets delivers a deliberately simple physical asset tracker that does exactly one thing well — keeping tabs on everything you own, from server racks down to individual HDDs, with hierarchical component nesting that mirrors real-world organization. The Node.js backend stores all data in JSON files within a single /data directory, making backups trivial with one folder copy while the PWA-enabled frontend provides responsive access from any device with light and dark theme persistence. Assets track model numbers, serial numbers, purchase dates, warranty expiration dates, and custom descriptions while sub-components nest infinitely — attach a Dell R730 to your server rack, then attach individual drives, CPUs, and NICs to that server with separate warranty and maintenance schedules for each. The Apprise notification engine fires configurable alerts for warranty expirations and maintenance events with direct links back to the specific asset in the web interface. Photo uploads attach visual records to any asset, receipt storage keeps purchase documentation alongside the item it covers, and a flexible tagging system enables cross-cutting organization beyond the hierarchy. PIN authentication with brute-force protection secures the interface, while search covers names, models, serials, and descriptions with sorting by warranty status, tags, components, or alphabetical order. Deploy with a single Docker command mapping port 3000 and one data volume.
