# Pocket Grimoire
|
|
|
|
**Pocket Grimoire** is a portable, encrypted, offline-capable companion to the Netgrimoire homelab.
|
|
|
|
It provides local access to:
|
|
- Documentation and reference material
|
|
- Git repositories and backups
|
|
- Photos and personal documents
|
|
- Media for local playback
|
|
- Network services (DNS, ad blocking, VPN routing)
|
|
|
|
Pocket Grimoire is designed to function **fully offline**, while automatically synchronizing from Netgrimoire whenever connectivity is available.

## Design Goals
|
|
|
|
- Encrypted at rest
|
|
- Calm, minimal services
|
|
- Offline-first operation
|
|
- Automatic synchronization
|
|
- One wall plug
|
|
- No cloud dependencies
|
|
- Clean physical deployment
|
|
|
|
Pocket Grimoire is not a general-purpose server.
|
|
It is a **traveling mirror and reference anchor**.
