The Monero daemon, monerod, is the core software that runs the Monero network. It is responsible for storing the blockchain and synchronizing transactions.
Activating to sync pruned blocks will save your network bandwith. You download only the pruned blocks instead of downloading the full blocks and pruning them afterwards.
Run a monerod stagenet node. Stagenet is a testing network for developers. It is a separate blockchain with separate coins from the main Monero network.
Monero Wallet RPC is a remote procedure call interface for Monero wallet.
Traefik is a modern HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer that makes deploying microservices easy.
P2Pool is a decentralized mining pool that works by creating a peer-to-peer network of miner nodes. For Monero's decentralization, it is better to use P2Pool instead of a centralized mining pool.
Moneroblock is a self-hostable block explorer for monero
Tor Proxy is a proxy server that forwards traffic into the Tor network.
Your own private Tor network for Monero and services like Moneroblock and P2Pool. You can share it with others or keep it to yourself.
Use docker logs tor-hidden-service to get generated onion addresses, after the container has started.
Monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana: see your node stats visualized in graphs. See on a map where your peers are located.
Watchtower is a service that monitors running Docker and watches for newer images. If there is a new version available, watchtower will automatically restart the container with the newest image.
Autoheal is a simple Docker container that will monitor and restart unhealthy docker containers.
