Deploy Grocy in one click installation.
Self-hosted grocery and household management app for tracking food inventory, expiry dates, and shopping lists.
What you can build with Grocy
Grocy is a web-based household management system built around food inventory. It tracks what you have, when it expires, and how much you consume, then uses that data to generate accurate shopping lists, prevent waste, and help you plan recipes from ingredients already in the pantry.
Self-hosting on your VPS means your household inventory data stays private, accessible from every family device whether at home or at the store, and never tied to a subscription or shut down by a vendor. The lightweight PHP and SQLite stack runs comfortably alongside other services on even a modest VPS.
Key features of Grocy
Expiry Date Tracking
Log purchase and expiration dates for every product so Grocy can alert you before items spoil, reducing food waste across the household.
Smart Shopping Lists
Shopping lists are generated automatically from recipe requirements and minimum stock thresholds, so you only buy what you actually need.
Barcode Scanning
Scan product barcodes from any mobile browser to instantly look up and log items without typing product names or quantities manually.
Recipe Management
Store recipes with ingredient quantities and let Grocy check your current stock before adding exactly what is missing to the shopping list.
Home Automation Integration
A full REST API enables integrations with Home Assistant, barcode scanner apps, and other self-hosted tools for a fully automated household workflow.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Hostinger Agent and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
