Landing page for all my services
-
How do you share your managed bookmarks with your wife, father, children, siblings?
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.
-
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 glance.

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.
My requirement with this page is it has to load really fast, because I return to it often while working / browsing. So yeah, it's really lightweight and easy to maintain, as things come and go. The source is stored in Forgejo! (the "Code" button there).

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.
That’s not helpful to their question

I wrote my minimal HTML+CSS dashboard with a touch of JavaScript and use it with pride.
Its blazing fast and quite customizable and no bells and whistles.

No pictures on repo is always frustrating

I use flame. It’s super simple and minimalistic. Best part is nothing random moves like homer/ar or whichever.
-
I use glance.
That actually looks awesome. Why do you follow hacker news? Is that the forum?
-

Ah, maybe will upload some.

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.
Actually I feel there are many very good suggostions here already like:
- Homepage
- Heimdall
- Static page with HTML links and CSS
- homarr
- Flame
- organizr
- Jump
- glance
It's more than I expected already.

Gives you a nice dashboard that you can configure however you like. It includes integration with a ton of existing services, as well as docker.
My setup:
Clicking on each service will open it's respective url.
The 'healthy' indicator at the top right of each service is it's container health. Clicking on that will expand to show cpu, ram and network usage;

And it also attracts more people to try/use it. (when they can see what it looks like when set up)

I used to feel much the same way. I had a pike of bookmarks and a couple permanent browser tab groups.
That changed when I tried out Homepage
On top of just putting all the links in one place; it was really nice to combine a bunch of information from each service to view in one place.
Now I can look at a single page and see with a quick glance; what+how many items are queued in Rad/Son/Lid-arr, what's queued or errored in Tdarr, item count/time/speed in SabNZBD/Qbit, who's streaming what in Emby, and even CPU/RAM usage across multiple systems.
I'd recommend exploring it, I didn't think something like this was worth it until I actually tried it myself.

Honestly thank you. Been using homarr for a while and had no idea that had a completely new version

Because I don't like software getting in my way I just cobbled together some HTML and CSS and call it a day.

I use Homerr which is really simple, but you could also use Heimdall or some other options here

If you needed some visual cues you could use colour and emojis to add context whilst keeping load times down

This is what I use. I tried other ones, but this one is simple to set up and edit. It's very clean and has a ton of widgets for services. I would like it to have a login option, but that isn't a deal breaker.

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.
That's pretty much me aswell, besides that I didn't even spend energy to try and learn others. Simple docker compose, simple ui and easy way to add services.
I am sure there are alternatives that allow for more elaborate setups and fancier things. But for the low effort I put into it, I got a page with some nice buttons with appropriate icons that scales to whatever screen size it's displayed on. Only additional thing I did was enabled to show some basic info to see if e.g. SABnzbd is downloading something, which was also super easy.
