For electronics or manufacturing I can recommend inventree. https://inventree.org/

It can even do things like defining projects that are made of sub-components that are made of parts you may or may not have on stock (and if you added a prize for each of the parts it will spit out a total cost). It can handle prize brackets etc.

For a most basic system or hobbyist needs this might be total overkill tho.

Why not start an excel sheet with everything you have and put an location next to the thing? The major work with such systems tends to be first entry and then keeping things up to date, so starting on a small subset of things and trying it out would be a wise way to go about it.



From lurking in the German mikrocontroller.net forum there are a few hobby alternatives like - EleLa : http://www.mmvisual.de/elela/ [] - PartDB : https://github.com/Part-DB/Part-DB-server

The page on the forum wiki is https://www.mikrocontroller.net/articles/Elektronik_Lagerver... [] and it speaks mostly about EleLa.

[*] these links are in German.

EleLa is a desktop app for Windows and Linux written in FreePascal with Lazarus PartDB isa PHP server for self hosting
