Wishlist
Self-hosted wishlist app to share with friends and family
Alternative to: amazon wish list, elfster
Wishlist is a self-hosted application for creating and sharing gift wish lists with friends and family. Users add items they'd like to receive, and others can view the list and claim items to avoid duplicate gifts, all without spoiling the surprise for the list owner. It runs as a single container backed by SQLite.
Wishlist Docker Compose example
Self-host Wishlist on your own server, homelab, or VPS starting from this Docker Compose example.
It runs Wishlist in Docker containers using the official ghcr.io/cmintey/wishlist:latest image, with persistent volumes and automatic restarts preconfigured.
Review the environment variables and adjust them to your setup, save the file as compose.yml (or docker-compose.yml), and start the stack with docker compose up -d.
