With over 35,000 GitHub stars in just two years, Glance has become the most popular self-hosted dashboard project on GitHub, outpacing established alternatives like Homarr and Homepage. Built as a single Go binary under 20MB with minimal JavaScript and zero external dependencies, Glance delivers a blazing-fast personal information dashboard that consolidates your entire digital morning routine into one beautiful page. Configure everything through clean YAML files that support modular includes and environment variable interpolation, with automatic hot-reload that applies changes without restarting the server. The widget ecosystem covers RSS and Atom feeds, Reddit and Hacker News frontpages, YouTube channel subscriptions, GitHub release timelines, weather forecasts from Open-Meteo, stock market quotes, Docker container status, Twitch live streams, calendar events via iCal, site monitor uptime checks, and custom HTML or iframe embeds. A community widgets repository extends functionality even further with user-contributed integrations. The theming system provides light, dark, and custom color schemes with multiple layout options including slim and wide column configurations. Authentication support added in 2025 secures access with username and password protection. Preconfigured page templates let you get started in seconds with curated layouts for development, homelab monitoring, news reading, and entertainment tracking. Deploy via Docker Compose or as a standalone binary on Linux, macOS, or Windows across AMD64 and ARM64 architectures. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

A single pane of glass for every service you run, arranged by drag-and-drop with no YAML or JSON files: Homarr is the modern dashboard for self-hosted infrastructure. Its grid system arranges apps, widgets, and bookmarks on desktop or touch, backed by an icon picker with over 11,000 icons. What separates Homarr from static launchers is 50+ live integrations: Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby media stats, the *arr suite (Sonarr, Radarr) with a unified release calendar, download clients, Pi-hole and AdGuard Home controls, Proxmox, Home Assistant, OPNsense, and Unifi monitoring. Widgets update in real time over WebSockets (tRPC and Redis under the hood), and a built-in search queries thousands of data points across connected services. Custom widgets extend the reach to any HTTP API without code: define endpoint, auth, and refresh interval in the management UI, then render responses as stat grids, tables, progress bars, status indicators, action buttons, or full custom JSX layouts - with an AI-prompt helper for generating templates. Multi-user support is first-class: credentials, OIDC, or LDAP sign-on, groups with granular permissions, and secrets encrypted with AES-256-CBC. A robust background-job system scales it from a Raspberry Pi homelab to deployments serving hundreds of users.

Every service you run, behind one polished start page: Dashy is the most customizable homelab dashboard, built as a Vue.js homepage. Configuration lives in a single YAML file, but you never have to hand-edit it: an integrated UI editor with real-time validation writes changes back to disk, so both config-as-code and point-and-click camps are served. Status indicators put a live health dot next to every app - HTTP checks or pings on custom intervals, with response time and status details on hover - giving you an at-a-glance uptime overview before anything breaks. Over 50 built-in widgets pull dynamic content from the services you already run: Pi-hole and AdGuard block stats, Proxmox lists, Nextcloud status, Netdata CPU/memory history, Prometheus data, plus weather, RSS, crypto prices, and generic iframe/API-response widgets for anything with an endpoint. Instant fuzzy search launches any app as you type, with customizable hotkeys and web-search fallthrough. Theming is deep: dozens of built-in themes, a UI color palette editor, and custom CSS over CSS variables. Alternate views include a fast-loading minimal startpage and a workspace view that embeds apps side-by-side without leaving the dashboard. Icons resolve from Font Awesome, homelab icon packs, emojis, or auto-fetched favicons. Built-in authentication, multi-page support, cloud backup/sync, and multi-language round out an MIT project with a massive community.

"Dead simple static HOMepage for your servER" - Homer's name is the spec. It is a fully static HTML/JS dashboard driven by one YAML file (assets/config.yml): list your services in groups with names, icons, tags, and URLs, and Homer renders a clean, fast landing page for everything you self-host. Because there is no backend, no database, and nothing to maintain, the container is tiny and effectively zero-maintenance - the entire operational surface is a text file you can version-control alongside your infrastructure. Despite the minimalism, the feature set is genuinely useful: smart cards add live data to service tiles via a type key - Pi-hole block statistics, AdGuard Home status, Jellyfin activity, Gatus and Home Assistant states, and dozens more integrations, with configurable periodic refresh. Fuzzy search jumps to any service as you type, keyboard shortcuts drive navigation, and multi-page support with item grouping keeps large homelabs organized. Theming covers built-in light and dark modes plus full custom CSS, tags get color-coded styles, and the whole dashboard installs as a PWA on phones and tablets. Icons come from Font Awesome or your own images. If Dashy is the maximalist dashboard and Homarr the drag-and-drop one, Homer is the minimalist: one YAML file, instant loads, and nothing that can break at 2 a.m.

With over 31,000 GitHub stars and 430 contributors, Homepage has become the definitive self-hosted dashboard for homelab enthusiasts and server administrators who want a single, elegant landing page for all their services. The dashboard renders as a fully static site at build time for instant page loads, while a Node.js backend securely proxies all API requests to prevent exposing service credentials to the browser. Docker integration automatically discovers running containers through label-based configuration, populating the dashboard with service status indicators, health checks, and real-time statistics without manual URL entry. Over 100 native service widgets display live data from popular applications including Plex, Jellyfin, Radarr, Sonarr, Home Assistant, Pi-hole, Portainer, Proxmox, Nextcloud, Gitea, and dozens more, each showing relevant metrics like active streams, download queues, or system health directly on the dashboard. Information widgets provide weather forecasts, system resource utilization, search bars, and date/time displays. The layout system supports multiple columns, tabs, and custom CSS for pixel-perfect arrangement of service groups and bookmarks. Built-in authentication options include OIDC integration and password protection. Quick search functionality enables instant access to bookmarks and services with keyboard shortcuts. Internationalization covers 40+ languages with community-maintained translations. Configuration lives entirely in YAML files for version-controlled, reproducible dashboard setups. Deploy on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console for complete control. GPL-3.0 licensed with an active community and bi-weekly releases.

Links stop drowning in browser bookmarks once Heimdall - the application dashboard from the LinuxServer.io team - gives every web app and service you run a single, organized front door. Items come in three tiers. Generic items link to anything on the web with a name, color, and optional icon. Foundation apps are recognized as you type, auto-filling the application's icon and tile color so a full homelab dashboard assembles in minutes. Enhanced apps go further: supply API credentials and the tile shows live data - queue size and download speed for SABnzbd and NZBGet, plus integrations for Sonarr, Radarr, Plex, Jellyfin, Pi-hole, Portainer, Transmission, and many more. There are no iframes and no apps-within-apps; tiles are honest links with real-time stats layered on. Tiles arrange by drag and drop, backgrounds are customizable, an optional search bar (Google, Bing, or DuckDuckGo) makes it work as a browser start page, and optional multi-user authentication keeps dashboards personal. Built on Laravel with SQLite file-based storage - no external database - it stays light, responsive on mobile, and simple to back up. A natural first deployment: the page that ties every other self-hosted service together.

A server full of scattered services becomes one clean application hub under Flame - a self-hosted startpage where every bit of configuration happens in built-in GUI editors, never a config file. Applications and bookmarks are created, edited, and organized into categories directly in the browser, and favorites pin to the homescreen for one-click access. The integrated search bar filters your apps and bookmarks locally as you type, and prefix shortcuts (like /g for Google) route queries to any of 11 web search providers or custom ones you define, making Flame a genuine browser homepage rather than a static link wall. Docker integration is the standout for homelabs: mount the Docker socket, add flame.type, flame.name, and flame.url labels to containers, and new services appear on the dashboard automatically - Kubernetes Ingress annotations work the same way. A weather widget shows temperature, cloud coverage, and animated conditions for your coordinates, and password authentication protects settings and items. Appearance is deeply customizable with 15 built-in color themes, a custom theme builder, and full custom CSS support. The stack is Node.js with SQLite behind a React frontend - light, fast, and inspired by the minimalist SUI design.

Every homelab deserves a control center that looks as good as the services it manages. Lab Dash gives you a customizable, drag-and-drop dashboard where every tile earns its spot. Add shortcut widgets linking to your Plex, Grafana, Nextcloud, or any service with automatic health check indicators showing green or red status at a glance. The system monitoring widget displays real-time CPU usage, memory consumption, network throughput, disk utilization, and temperature readings by mounting the host /sys directory as a read-only volume. Integrate Pi-hole stats, qBittorrent download progress, and media server widgets for Jellyfin, Plex, or Emby directly on your grid. Multiple pages let you organize services by category, and the search bar finds any tile instantly. Customize the background image from a local upload or URL, set a custom title and tab name, and choose your preferred search provider including self-hosted options like SearXNG. All sensitive configuration data is encrypted locally with AES-256-CBC, and only administrator accounts can modify the layout. Install Lab Dash as a Progressive Web App on desktop, phone, or tablet for a native app experience with offline capability. Configurations export as backup files for easy migration between instances. On RepoCloud, deploy Lab Dash on a dedicated VPS with root SSH access and Docker socket connectivity under the GPL-3.0 license.

LobsterBoard lets you assemble custom monitoring dashboards from 50 pre-built widgets using a visual drag-and-drop editor, covering everything from CPU and memory gauges to AI subscription trackers, stock tickers, and camera feeds on your own server with zero cloud dependencies. The snap-grid editor handles layout composition with resize handles and a property panel, so you drag widgets onto a canvas, configure their data sources, and the dashboard is live. Real-time system statistics flow through Server-Sent Events, updating CPU load, memory pressure, disk usage, network throughput, and Docker container status without page refreshes. Five built-in themes range from a dark default to a retro CRT terminal aesthetic, a warm sepia paper look, and pastel options for different display environments. The template gallery lets you export complete dashboard layouts with auto-captured screenshot previews, share them with other users, and import configurations as a full replacement or selective merge. Custom pages extend beyond dashboards into notes, kanban boards, or any free-form layout you need. Built-in widgets connect to iCal feeds for calendar events, RSS sources for news aggregation, weather APIs for local conditions, and financial data providers for cryptocurrency and stock prices. The whole system runs from a single server.cjs file with zero cloud dependencies or external frameworks. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. BSL-1.1 licensed (free for non-commercial use; converts to MIT in 2030).

Nimbus is a self-hosted homelab dashboard that turns your scattered pile of services into a polished, organized command center with real-time health monitoring for every endpoint you care about. The dashboard displays live status cards for each registered service, tracking response times down to the millisecond and graphing uptime history so you can spot degradation before it becomes an outage. Health checks run on configurable intervals with smart self-signed certificate handling, meaning your internal services with self-issued TLS do not trigger false alarms. Multi-user support comes standard: local accounts authenticate via JWT, while OAuth2 integration with Google, GitHub, and Discord lets team members sign in with existing credentials. Role-based access control and a built-in admin panel give you granular authority over who sees what. Each user personalizes their view with custom backgrounds, light or dark mode, accent color themes, and drag-and-drop service tile arrangement. Services group into named categories and cards resize to fit your preferred layout, with both grid and list view modes available. Prometheus metrics export feeds your existing Grafana stack, and webhook notifications alert you instantly when a service goes offline. Custom service icons upload directly or auto-fetch from the Dashboard Icons collection. Zero-config Docker deployment gets you running in under 30 seconds with a single docker-compose command. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

Staying on top of hundreds of RSS feeds is impossible when every reader just dumps articles in chronological order. RSSMonster takes a different approach: it evaluates, scores, and prioritizes every article so the signal rises above the noise. The three-pane reading interface automatically marks articles as read when you scroll past them, while the built-in quality scoring engine rates content by freshness, originality, trust, and attention metrics. Compose advanced search expressions using field operators like star:true, quality:>0.6, hot:true, and date filters like @today or @lastweek, then save those expressions as persistent Smart Folders for one-click access to curated views. Semantic event clustering groups related articles across sources so you see one coherent story instead of fifteen duplicates. Connect your favorite mobile client through the Fever API (supporting Reeder for iOS) or the Google Reader API (compatible with News+, FeedMe, Vienna RSS, and ReadKit). The AI chat assistant powered by the Model Context Protocol lets you ask questions about your feed content and get summarized answers. Import your existing subscriptions via OPML, switch between light and dark themes, and install the app as a Progressive Web App for offline reading. On RepoCloud, deploy RSSMonster on a dedicated VPS with root SSH access, full data ownership, and persistent storage under the MIT license.

Where Miniflux strips reading down, FreshRSS gives you knobs - the feature-rich pole of self-hosted RSS, comfortable with thousands of feeds. It's a multi-user PHP aggregator (host family and friends on one instance, with an anonymous reading mode) with the reading workflow refined over a decade: favorites, custom tags, powerful filter and search queries, three reading views, and statistics that reveal each site's publishing frequency - useful for pruning subscriptions. Two properties make it the standard choice. First, the Google Reader-compatible API (plus a Fever API) syncs with virtually every serious RSS client - Reeder, NetNewsWire, ReadYou, FeedMe, Fluent Reader - so your phone reads from your server. Second, native WebSub support means compatible sources (WordPress, Blogger, Medium, Friendica) push new articles instantly instead of waiting for polling. A 50+ extension ecosystem adds what truncated feeds omit - full-text content fetching, reading-time estimates, trending views, auto-unsubscribe for dead feeds - alongside community themes and custom CSS. OPML import/export keeps subscriptions portable, a CLI handles administration, and article sharing posts to many services. AGPL-licensed, running on SQLite, MySQL, or PostgreSQL. Feedly Pro's feature set, minus Feedly's subscription and its algorithms.

One statically-compiled Go binary over PostgreSQL, no ORM, no framework, static assets embedded in the executable: Miniflux is the minimalist, opinionated feed reader. The opinions are the feature: page layout, fonts, and colors are tuned for reading, and everything else is treated as noise. It consumes Atom, RSS, and JSON Feed formats with OPML import/export, organizes articles with categories and bookmarks, fetches original full-text content for summary-only feeds, and provides Postgres-powered full-text search. Privacy work happens automatically: pixel trackers are stripped, tracking parameters removed from URLs, a media proxy blocks third-party tracking, referrers are never forwarded, and there is zero telemetry. Navigation is keyboard-first - j/k through items, o to open, f to star - with touch gestures on mobile. Podcast, video, and music enclosures are supported, and YouTube videos play inline. Over 25 integrations save articles onward to Wallabag, Readwise Reader, Pinboard, Linkding, Instapaper, Notion, Telegram, Matrix, Ntfy, and more, plus webhooks and a REST API with Go and Python clients; the Google Reader API endpoint supports existing mobile reader apps. Authentication spans local passwords, passkeys (WebAuthn), Google OAuth2, OpenID Connect, and reverse-proxy headers. It is Apache 2.0 licensed, translated into 20 languages, and updates feeds on an internal scheduler.

Does your container fleet silently fall behind on upstream patches until a critical vulnerability advisory forces an emergency audit? What's Up Docker continuously watches standalone Docker daemons, Compose stacks, Swarm services, Kubernetes workloads, and Nomad jobs to detect new image tags across public and private registries before sending alerts or rolling out updates automatically. Watchers connect over local sockets, TLS-secured TCP endpoints, kubeconfigs, or Nomad APIs to inventory active workloads without invasive sidecars. From there, registry connectors authenticate against Docker Hub, GitHub Container Registry, AWS ECR, Google Artifact Registry, Azure Container Registry, Quay, GitLab, Gitea, Forgejo, and self-hosted OCI registries to compare digests and tags. Flexible filtering rules let you restrict alerts to major, minor, or patch semantic version increments, match custom regular expressions, or pin specific tag patterns per container label. Once an eligible release appears, over thirty built-in triggers can dispatch notifications to Discord, Slack, Telegram, Matrix, Mattermost, Gotify, Ntfy, Pushover, Apprise, PagerDuty, or SMTP, publish events to MQTT, Kafka, RabbitMQ, or NATS, or recreate containers directly on demand. A responsive web dashboard and REST API provide manual update controls, OpenID Connect single sign-on with role-based access control, and Prometheus metrics for Grafana observability. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Fleet-wide container discovery, live log streaming, and Traefik reverse-proxy routing converge into Dockpeek, a lightweight Docker dashboard built for multi-host server environments. System administrators can launch web applications with one click through automatic port binding detection and integrated Traefik label parsing that extracts public routing hostnames directly from container configurations. The platform monitors multi-host environments through encrypted Docker socket proxies, letting operators inspect running containers, query published network ports, and trigger image updates from a unified control panel. Native Docker Swarm integration auto-detects active cluster managers, mapping swarm services and replicated tasks alongside standalone workloads while flagging degraded service replicas. Built-in log inspectors stream stdout and stderr outputs in real time with line-filtering controls to diagnose crashed services without opening remote SSH terminals. Operators can track image registries for newer digest tags, review pending updates across container fleets, and trigger graceful rolling container recreations directly from the dashboard. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Reaching 24,000 GitHub stars within two years of its first commit in July 2024, Beszel delivers Netdata-grade monitoring dashboards from a single Docker container with no Prometheus stack, no external database, and no complex configuration — just a one-binary hub on PocketBase (SQLite embedded) and a sub-15 MB agent per host that auto-discovers Docker and Podman containers on contact. The agent connects outbound via WebSocket or SSH tunnel, requiring zero open ports on monitored servers and zero manual network configuration. Per-host metrics cover CPU usage, memory with swap and ZFS ARC breakdown, disk I/O across multiple partitions, network throughput, load average, sensor temperatures, battery charge, and GPU utilization with power draw for Nvidia, AMD, and Intel cards — features that competitors lock behind paid tiers. S.M.A.R.T. disk health including eMMC wear indicators and Linux mdraid array status surface hardware degradation before failures occur. Container statistics track CPU, memory, and network history per container with automatic discovery as new containers start. Configurable threshold alerts notify via email, Discord, Telegram, ntfy, Pushover, Gotify, Matrix, Mattermost, Signal, Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Twilio when metrics exceed defined limits. Multi-user accounts with OAuth/OIDC authentication let teams share monitored systems with role-based access, while automatic backups persist data to disk or S3-compatible storage. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Pulse monitors your entire heterogeneous infrastructure from one screen: Proxmox VE, Proxmox Backup Server, Proxmox Mail Gateway, Docker, Podman, Docker Swarm, Kubernetes, TrueNAS SCALE/CORE, VMware vSphere, and standalone Linux/Windows/macOS machines. The Go binary embeds a SolidJS/TypeScript frontend, delivering WebSocket-driven dashboards with sub-second metric updates on port 7655. A unified agent auto-detects Docker, Podman, Kubernetes, and Proxmox on each host without manual configuration and self-updates silently, while Proxmox nodes need only API credentials with zero agent installation. Smart alerts use adaptive hysteresis-based thresholds to prevent notification floods, pushing to Discord, Slack, Telegram, Teams, email, ntfy.sh, Gotify, and generic webhooks with per-resource overrides. The standout feature is Pulse Patrol: scheduled AI health checks running every ten minutes to seven days using OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, or local Ollama models. Patrol catches silent backup failures, capacity creep, restart loops, unhealthy containers, and clock drift that dashboards miss when nobody is watching. Platform-specific views render Proxmox nodes, Ceph clusters, Docker Compose projects, Kubernetes workloads, TrueNAS pools, and vSphere VMs in familiar layouts. OIDC, SSO, and SAML authentication with credential encryption at rest secures access. 6,500+ stars and 441 releases since February 2025. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Website analytics, uptime monitoring, and server status - three tools most teams run separately - combined in Tianji, an open-source observability platform. The analytics layer tracks page views, unique visitors, referrers, and UTM parameters with a lightweight cookie-less script, which keeps collection GDPR and CCPA friendly. The uptime monitor checks availability and latency on configurable intervals, accepts passively reported results, and publishes public status pages for incident communication. Server status agents report CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics with threshold-based alerts, and notifications route through webhooks, Slack, Telegram, and other channels with noise control. It also includes anonymous telemetry for tracking deployments of your own open-source projects, surveys, waitlists, team collaboration, and an OpenAPI interface for integrations and exports. The consolidation is the point: traffic analytics, uptime checks, and server metrics share one interface and one alerting layer, so diagnosing an incident does not mean hopping between Google Analytics, Uptime Kuma, and Prometheus - and the built-in public status pages replace a separate paid Statuspage-style subscription. Because collection uses no cookies with IP truncation and aggregation by default, basic traffic measurement requires no consent banner. Built in TypeScript under the Apache 2.0 license and inspired by Umami and Uptime Kuma, it is deliberately right-sized for independent developers and small SaaS teams whose monitoring needs are real but lightweight.
