Does anyone here know of any self hosted (preferably open source) "ERP" for the wardrobe?

Basically something to build a catalog of clothing, cloths, etc., with pictures, categories, storage location, material info, washing instructions, etc.

Not judging (okay maybe a bit πŸ˜‰), but how much clothing do you have in your wardrobe if that it necessary?

I have probably around 40 T-Shirts (most with some funny or technical prints), obviously several business shirts in different colors, different trousers, etc.

I have difficulty keeping an overview and keep reusing only a very small subset. I also don't want to pull them all out of the wardrobe each time to sift through them to figure out what would fit my mood today.

For cloths (bed cloths especially) the problem is mostly that their instructions are unreadable after a while and I then have no clue what I can wash at 95Β°C, what only at 60 an what may only survive 40.

If you own an iPhone, just take pics of your wardrobe and then β€œcut” pictures of actual clothes into notes? Imho ERP like system would be an overkill, at least for me.

Could work. Maybe also something like AirTable (SeaTable probably) for the metadata. Hmm.

I dont get it, why use such tooling for metadata?

Lets say you went with iOS notes and picture pulling, then you would just create a table in notes, paste the pic in the firm column and rest of data, such as washing instructions, color, etc. in the others. Heck, now you could just use excel or whatever table app is on iOS, instead of clunky notes, for eg pivoting and do whatever you want to do with it.

It's easier to share (so my wife can maintain and use the collection as well) and I am not locked into the apple eco system. Plus, I can then define different views and queries.

Grocy is primarily intended for groceries but can be used for basically everything in your household. Every product gets a location and one can also add pictures, a description and a category. You can even print barcodes for each product.
