I’ve accumulated enough self hosted stuff that I feel like I want a dashboard now so I don’t have to remember which IP & port I need for which service (not all my services are exposed to the WWW).
I looked at some dashboard solutions already but there is a huge amount of them. I also use Home Assistant as the dashboard for my home.
So I’m looking to bounce some ideas off this community. Should I add one more service to my servers in the form of a dashboard, or should I maybe create a dashboard in Home Assistant?
If going with a standalone dashboard service, which one?
If going with Home Assistant, is there some good add-ons or something I can use to make managing my services easier?
Let me know what you guys think and thank you!


I don’t know about Home Assistant, but I am using Glance. I love the aesthetic and that you can configure it with descriptive yaml files.
But I think this is also a question you need to ask yourself: Do you want to “click together” a dashboard aka one with a nice GUI where you can configute everything (e.g. Homarr). Or rather one with config files like Glance and a bit simpler in its feature set.
