Proxmox VE has a large ecosystem: management UIs, monitoring stacks, backup tools, API clients, templates, and countless blog posts. Useful projects are easy to miss when they are scattered across GitHub, forums, and documentation sites.

That is why I maintain Awesome Proxmox VE Virtualization - a curated collection of software, tools, and documentation around Proxmox VE, Proxmox Backup Server, and related projects.

GitHub list and website #

The source of truth lives on GitHub:

Github Repository: github.com/alexgoesgit/awesome-proxmox-ve-virtualization

There is also a dedicated website that makes the catalog easier to browse - with search and category filters instead of scrolling through a long README:
