Money: 6; Fun: 14; Adjusted: 20

## The idea

Let old machines be used as a server. Next step Dukaan-style hosting. Full CI/CD, metrics, log management. Auto scale/descale. **Comp:** Hetzner/OVH self-host, Coolify, Caprover, Dokploy. **Wedge:** repurposing-old-hardware angle is novel for indie/hobby; weak monetization.

## Score reasoning

Feasibility — 6/10: Niche infra OSS project; devs interested; weak revenue but solo-shippable.
Fun 7 + Tech 7 = 14 · Money 4 + Feasibility 6 − Competition 4 = 6 · Source: README
