Developer Tools
Dashy, a highly customizable self hosted dashboard and start page that brings all your homelab apps, services and links onto one page, with sections, icons, themes, search and a built in visual editor.
Overview
Dashy is an open source, self hosted dashboard for your homelab, servers and applications. It brings all of your links, apps and bookmarks together on one customizable start page, organised into sections with icons, themes, search, keyboard shortcuts, live status checks and a built in visual editor for changing the layout directly from the browser. Configuration is a single human readable file, so a dashboard is easy to version, back up and reproduce.
It suits anyone who runs more than a handful of self hosted services and wants a single, private front door to everything, kept on infrastructure they control rather than a third party service.
Why the cloudimg image
cloudimg delivers Dashy fully built from source and hardened, so a working dashboard answers the moment the instance boots, with no memory heavy build to run yourself. The image is secure by default: Dashy's own login is a client side gate that is off by default, so instead Dashy binds only to loopback behind an nginx reverse proxy that enforces HTTP basic authentication over TLS on every request. A unique administrator credential is generated on each instance's first boot and only its one way hash is stored, with the plain password written to a root only file, so there is no shared or default login and nothing usable is baked into the image. A starter dashboard is preloaded so the interface is populated the moment you sign in, and everything is backed by a paired deploy guide and 24/7 support.
Common uses
- Run a single private start page for all your self hosted apps and services
- Organise links, bookmarks and dashboards for a team inside your own cloud account
- Monitor your services at a glance with sections, icons, themes and status checks
