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 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.

    I think you pretty much just now wrote a landing page, you just need to turn those into links and host that page somewhere.

    Sure, you could create a database or JSON file with attributes of each thing and use React or Node.js to generate the UI, but that doesn’t seem necessary for a need on this scale - when things change just edit the landing page. I’ve been keeping links to my soft copies of D&D books and stuff with a simple HTML page for years, and I’m a web dev. No need to do work the requirements don’t demand.

      I’m lazy, I just use bookmarks and then go to that site and go look at whatever. These sync in FireFox across my devices.

    Homepage

    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. Some of these services/docker hosts are on separate machines; it all integrates together nicely.

      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.

        Yeah; the lack of authentication options is a bit of a bummer if you’re going to expose/share this page. There is always basic_auth in nginx or whatever proxy you’re using if you really want.
