Landing page for all my services
-
Over the years I accumulated very many services which I host myself and each of them has it's own URL:
- 6 websites, mine and my sisters
- 3 instances of home assistant
- Uptime Kuma
- Synology with photos on it
- Matrix server
- Firefox sync
- TinyTinyRSS
- Mastodon
- PeerTube
- PieFed
- Immich
- Open WebUI (for local large language models)
- UniFi (CCTV)
- Baïkal (Cal- and CardDav)
I'm probably forgetting some of them now and I'm planning to host more in the future.
The problem is how to remember all of those URLs or domains. I have a system how I call them, but my extended family can't really remember them.
I think it's time for a landing page. Do you guys have any suggestions?

I use Flame as a dashboard for users at home
-
I use organizr. It can use iframes to load the pages which makes for a very integrated experience. It can be a little more complex to get going and get your apps playing nice with the iframes. Also the development on it has slowed down a lot. I'm hoping it gets more love soon, but that alone has me looking for alternatives. There are several others I have seen. I'm looking at Homepage currently.
So far nothing seems better than organizr for my uses.
-
I use Jump for guests, Homepage for me, and Organizr for both.

I'm super basic when it comes to dashboard. Spinning up a Heimdall docker container is so insanely easy and it lets me make nice looking links to all my services. Of all the things I've spent energy to try and learn to be better at, my dashboard has never been one and maybe it's time to revisit... But man, it's just a really quick compose file and one command and it's there.

I just hacked a simple HTML page for this, with big mobile friendly buttons.
That page is served by nginx in my server and is my default home page on my phone and desktop.

Hm interesting, no icons and no status indicator. At the same time over time you probably got it into your muscle memory where to press quickly. It's intriguing.

Bookmarks are a thing
-
Is there a way to categorize the apps or is it just one list? I feel I have to many of them to have just a list.
-
I have everything in bookmarks but the discoverability of them in my browser is not very good for the rest of the extended family.

It's buttons you click on, arranged in a grid. You can color and arrange them based on groupings. I know you can have some marked "bookmarked" and some that aren't, and then you'll only see the bookmarked tabs on your Dashboard's main listing. I'm actually not sure if there are further ways to delve into grouping. I certainly never bothered. Basic, like I said, lol

Im using homarr it works really good and is easy to configure
-
Honestly, a landing page for me is just another thing I need to mess with. Bookmarks and using keywords to load them is so easy. Once they're in a bookmark, I'm just using keywords to get back to wherever they are. Super easy.
-
https://tchncs.de/en/ has a pretty good landing page.

I love homepage for this purpose. Gorgeous, good UX, easy to configure, and lots of widgets/integrations.
-
How do you share your managed bookmarks with your wife, father, children, siblings?
-
Homepage is great, especially if the services are deployed on docker or Kubernetes. You can just add some metadata to each service and Homepage will automatically pick them up. No need to remember to update it directly for a new service.
-
I wouldn't. People can bookmark their own things. Honestly, with browser histories being so readily accessible to recall sites anymore, I feel like isn't a problem that people struggle with. Probably why you're not getting much traction here for your specific angle.

I use glance.
