A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I'm looking for something like Heimdall, but a little bit more lightweight, hopefully something I can just throw into my www folder. Nothing requiring Docker. Just lightweight stuff.

Try tinyhome https://github.com/bderenzo/tinyhome

Throw a few bits of info into a csv, run a bash script and it produces a html file like this demo page https://lab.bdro.fr/tinyhome/

That's truly as lightweight as you're going to get. Cool little script.

I personally use "homepage", it's great and has API integration for many things, and can even show the statuses if docker containers if configured correctly. But yeah, take a look at awesome selfhosted which another commenter posted.

Another vote for Homepage, fantastic project

I just have a hard coded, static html page. I edit it when anything changes. I guess I'm a Luddite.

Any of https://awesome-selfhosted.net/tags/personal-dashboards.html

Personally I use a static HTML page [1]. Ansible updates it automatically every time a service is added/removed.

Super simple static page. https://github.com/bastienwirtz/homer

I run it in docker in an LXC on Proxmox which is all part of my Tailscale net

I forked https://github.com/jeroenpardon/sui

Had to fix a few buggy things including the theming and maintain it https://gitlab.meme.beer/open-source/web-dash

Just html, so if you don't want to run the container you can just dump it in your www folder.

If you like Heimdall you could run it without Docker. It's a PHP app, you could run nginx and it would be pretty lightweight.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I run Heimdall too. Simple and looks good. Let's my gf easily get to my stuff.

Acronyms, initialisms, abbreviations, contractions, and other phrases which expand to something larger, that I've seen in this thread:

Fewer Letters More Letters
HTTP Hypertext Transfer Protocol, the Web
LXC Linux Containers
nginx Popular HTTP server
