  1. uh dashboards probably one of my uh dashboards probably one of my favorite tools it really kind of favorite tools it really kind of favorite tools it really kind of complement the whole Home Server complement the whole Home Server complement the whole Home Server environment you can have all your environment you can have all your environment you can have all your services on there fun little widgets services on there fun little widgets services on there fun little widgets it's just the little cherry on top to it's just the little cherry on top to it's just the little cherry on top to everything that you could do with a Home everything that you could do with a Home everything that you could do with a Home Server now I've used plenty of these Server now I've used plenty of these Server now I've used plenty of these dashboards whether that be homepage you dashboards whether that be homepage you dashboards whether that be homepage you have heimel one of my personal favorites have heimel one of my personal favorites have heimel one of my personal favorites and the most recent one was home R ton and the most recent one was home R ton and the most recent one was home R ton of features and it integrates very well of features and it integrates very well of features and it integrates very well with the r kind of stack of applications with the r kind of stack of applications with the r kind of stack of applications but the one that I have switched to I do but the one that I have switched to I do but the one that I have switched to I do find myself using more than any other find myself using more than any other find myself using more than any other one this one is not only beautiful but one this one is not only beautiful but one this one is not only beautiful but it is configured simply with a single it is configured simply with a single it is configured simply with a single yaml file for the entire application yaml file for the entire application yaml file for the entire application this right here is glance dare I say this right here is glance dare I say this right here is glance dare I say giving you a glance of your entire Home giving you a glance of your entire Home giving you a glance of your entire Home Server if I head over here to their Server if I head over here to their Server if I head over here to their GitHub page you can get a lot of GitHub page you can get a lot of GitHub page you can get a lot of different information they have pretty different information they have pretty different information they have pretty decent documentation a list of all Le decent documentation a list of all Le decent documentation a list of all Le features it's something that's not going features it's something that's not going features it's something that's not going to be as featur rich as of yet as to be as featur rich as of yet as to be as featur rich as of yet as something like home R but its something like home R but its something like home R but its implementation of what it does have is implementation of what it does have is implementation of what it does have is phenomenal if I scroll down here you can phenomenal if I scroll down here you can phenomenal if I scroll down here you can see it's mobile friendly there's a bunch see it's mobile friendly there's a bunch see it's mobile friendly there's a bunch of different themes or kind of color of different themes or kind of color of different themes or kind of color schemes that you can use including schemes that you can use including schemes that you can use including documentation very easy to configure and documentation very easy to configure and documentation very easy to configure and install whether that be through doc install whether that be through doc install whether that be through doc compose or a manual binary installation compose or a manual binary installation compose or a manual binary installation personally if we head on over here I personally if we head on over here I personally if we head on over here I have it installed via a prox Moog helper have it installed via a prox Moog helper have it installed via a prox Moog helper script which all you do is run this script which all you do is run this script which all you do is run this command on your uh kind of host machine command on your uh kind of host machine command on your uh kind of host machine and it will spin up an lxc and and then and it will spin up an lxc and and then and it will spin up an lxc and and then you use this to manage everything really you use this to manage everything really you use this to manage everything really easy but later on I'll show you kind of

  2. easy but later on I'll show you kind of easy but later on I'll show you kind of the installation process with Docker as the installation process with Docker as the installation process with Docker as that will probably be the most common that will probably be the most common that will probably be the most common way to go about this but first before we way to go about this but first before we way to go about this but first before we get into all that my configuration how get into all that my configuration how get into all that my configuration how to configure it and more in-depth little to configure it and more in-depth little to configure it and more in-depth little uh investigation into some of the uh investigation into some of the uh investigation into some of the features I do need to thank the sponsor features I do need to thank the sponsor features I do need to thank the sponsor of today's video and that is the yes of today's video and that is the yes of today's video and that is the yes soul exercise bike yes I'm just as soul exercise bike yes I'm just as soul exercise bike yes I'm just as surprised as you are model that they surprised as you are model that they surprised as you are model that they sent over is the gm1 plus bike with a 10 sent over is the gm1 plus bike with a 10 sent over is the gm1 plus bike with a 10 80P screen in my experience using it 80P screen in my experience using it 80P screen in my experience using it it's very comfortable it's a pretty wide it's very comfortable it's a pretty wide it's very comfortable it's a pretty wide seat like many other popular exercise seat like many other popular exercise seat like many other popular exercise bikes there's a little dial to adjust bikes there's a little dial to adjust bikes there's a little dial to adjust the tension or the kind of theoretical the tension or the kind of theoretical the tension or the kind of theoretical elevation that you get when you're elevation that you get when you're elevation that you get when you're working out with it after I got it I working out with it after I got it I working out with it after I got it I realized you need a subscription to realized you need a subscription to realized you need a subscription to their service to be able to use the their service to be able to use the their service to be able to use the screen casting feature but that casting screen casting feature but that casting screen casting feature but that casting feature is great it's simple plug-and feature is great it's simple plug-and feature is great it's simple plug-and playay whether if you're using your cell playay whether if you're using your cell playay whether if you're using your cell phone ju just about anything that phone ju just about anything that phone ju just about anything that supports display out can project to that supports display out can project to that supports display out can project to that screen making for a really nice screen making for a really nice screen making for a really nice entertaining and comfortable workout and entertaining and comfortable workout and entertaining and comfortable workout and no matter what you're watching you're no matter what you're watching you're no matter what you're watching you're still going to have stats on the screen still going to have stats on the screen still going to have stats on the screen up in the corner of your time your Watts up in the corner of your time your Watts up in the corner of your time your Watts that you're generating and the current that you're generating and the current that you're generating and the current elevation level that you are on elevation level that you are on elevation level that you are on personally I've been using it to cast my personally I've been using it to cast my personally I've been using it to cast my Plex server on it when I am using it and Plex server on it when I am using it and Plex server on it when I am using it and I have had no trouble whatsoever the I have had no trouble whatsoever the I have had no trouble whatsoever the main selling point of this bike is just main selling point of this bike is just main selling point of this bike is just the cost Effectiveness you can see a the cost Effectiveness you can see a the cost Effectiveness you can see a little pricing comparison here compared little pricing comparison here compared little pricing comparison here compared to some of the kind of bigname to some of the kind of bigname to some of the kind of bigname competitors and better yet if you use competitors and better yet if you use competitors and better yet if you use the link down below you will get $100 of the link down below you will get $100 of the link down below you will get $100 of instant savings so again check the link instant savings so again check the link instant savings so again check the link down below to enjoy fun cardio with yel

  3. down below to enjoy fun cardio with yel down below to enjoy fun cardio with yel now back over here we are at the GitHub now back over here we are at the GitHub now back over here we are at the GitHub page one thing I want to do is just go page one thing I want to do is just go page one thing I want to do is just go back to my instance and kind of talk back to my instance and kind of talk back to my instance and kind of talk about some of the features here that I about some of the features here that I about some of the features here that I am utilizing so first the services am utilizing so first the services am utilizing so first the services section actually have two of them is the section actually have two of them is the section actually have two of them is the monitoring feature so with this you monitoring feature so with this you monitoring feature so with this you input a IP address or whatever and then input a IP address or whatever and then input a IP address or whatever and then it will tell you if these service is up it will tell you if these service is up it will tell you if these service is up as you can see everything here that I as you can see everything here that I as you can see everything here that I have going on isn't facted up and have going on isn't facted up and have going on isn't facted up and running little preview I'm getting running little preview I'm getting running little preview I'm getting everything organized and kind of as everything organized and kind of as everything organized and kind of as perfect as I can before my home services perfect as I can before my home services perfect as I can before my home services kind of tour video so do subscribe so kind of tour video so do subscribe so kind of tour video so do subscribe so you do not miss that we do have some you do not miss that we do have some you do not miss that we do have some widgets DNS status this is my pie hole widgets DNS status this is my pie hole widgets DNS status this is my pie hole instance so you can see how much percent instance so you can see how much percent instance so you can see how much percent of uh the DNS queries have been blocked of uh the DNS queries have been blocked of uh the DNS queries have been blocked right here just a nice little quick right here just a nice little quick right here just a nice little quick overview image is my uh image server so overview image is my uh image server so overview image is my uh image server so it's like my Google photos replacement it's like my Google photos replacement it's like my Google photos replacement nice little statistics there and then I nice little statistics there and then I nice little statistics there and then I have a quick link to kind of the main have a quick link to kind of the main have a quick link to kind of the main GitHub or repository that I'm U work on GitHub or repository that I'm U work on GitHub or repository that I'm U work on quite frequently which is my home lab quite frequently which is my home lab quite frequently which is my home lab repository and that's really it for the repository and that's really it for the repository and that's really it for the amount of features I'm doing just a real amount of features I'm doing just a real amount of features I'm doing just a real nice overview of course we could search nice overview of course we could search nice overview of course we could search so if I search like teut Docker take you so if I search like teut Docker take you so if I search like teut Docker take you over here and then we have real nice over here and then we have real nice over here and then we have real nice search to this uh Docker guide which you search to this uh Docker guide which you search to this uh Docker guide which you should probably check out so if I head should probably check out so if I head should probably check out so if I head back over here we also have another Tab back over here we also have another Tab back over here we also have another Tab and again all this is customizable this and again all this is customizable this and again all this is customizable this Home tab I haven't really changed too Home tab I haven't really changed too Home tab I haven't really changed too much from the default but this is really much from the default but this is really much from the default but this is really nice nice because it gives me a nice nice nice because it gives me a nice nice nice because it gives me a nice little calendar we have the weather for little calendar we have the weather for little calendar we have the weather for my area right here we have the latest my area right here we have the latest my area right here we have the latest from Hacker News so I can get a nice

  4. from Hacker News so I can get a nice from Hacker News so I can get a nice overview of what is going on there we overview of what is going on there we overview of what is going on there we have lobsters here as well so we have um have lobsters here as well so we have um have lobsters here as well so we have um all kind of interesting articles that I all kind of interesting articles that I all kind of interesting articles that I would be interested in checking out so would be interested in checking out so would be interested in checking out so you can just click this to jump right you can just click this to jump right you can just click this to jump right over to it see what's going on I'm going over to it see what's going on I'm going over to it see what's going on I'm going to close that out for now and then down to close that out for now and then down to close that out for now and then down here we have an RSS feed you can see I here we have an RSS feed you can see I here we have an RSS feed you can see I got 9 to5 Linux OMG auntu just there at got 9 to5 Linux OMG auntu just there at got 9 to5 Linux OMG auntu just there at latest posts and you could customize latest posts and you could customize latest posts and you could customize that however you want we have videos that however you want we have videos that however you want we have videos here so we have L's Tech tips uh Jeff here so we have L's Tech tips uh Jeff here so we have L's Tech tips uh Jeff and just some things that I kind of care and just some things that I kind of care and just some things that I kind of care to watch we have Fire Ship here over to watch we have Fire Ship here over to watch we have Fire Ship here over here just a little overview of the here just a little overview of the here just a little overview of the markets some of the things that I am markets some of the things that I am markets some of the things that I am kind of generally interested in and then kind of generally interested in and then kind of generally interested in and then if we scroll down we do have twitch if we scroll down we do have twitch if we scroll down we do have twitch channels here I don't really watch channels here I don't really watch channels here I don't really watch Twitch I just kind of kept that there to Twitch I just kind of kept that there to Twitch I just kind of kept that there to demonstrate this you can put in some uh demonstrate this you can put in some uh demonstrate this you can put in some uh Reddit groups or Pages forgot what Reddit groups or Pages forgot what Reddit groups or Pages forgot what they're called and then right here again they're called and then right here again they're called and then right here again I haven't really customized this either I haven't really customized this either I haven't really customized this either this is like new releases from GitHub this is like new releases from GitHub this is like new releases from GitHub repositories and that is a really nice repositories and that is a really nice repositories and that is a really nice overview of how this looks how pretty it overview of how this looks how pretty it overview of how this looks how pretty it can be and if I jump over to my procm can be and if I jump over to my procm can be and if I jump over to my procm instance here like I said personally I instance here like I said personally I instance here like I said personally I do have this installed in an lxc little do have this installed in an lxc little do have this installed in an lxc little container right here we got Tabby into container right here we got Tabby into container right here we got Tabby into our glance lxc there we go so now let's our glance lxc there we go so now let's our glance lxc there we go so now let's CD into op glance a folder and the yaml CD into op glance a folder and the yaml CD into op glance a folder and the yaml file in here we just have a glance file file in here we just have a glance file file in here we just have a glance file and then the glance configuration so if and then the glance configuration so if and then the glance configuration so if I just Nano into that yaml this is the I just Nano into that yaml this is the I just Nano into that yaml this is the entire configuration now um what is it h entire configuration now um what is it h entire configuration now um what is it h r is really nice because you do

  5. r is really nice because you do r is really nice because you do basically all of the configuration basically all of the configuration basically all of the configuration through the kind of web interface but through the kind of web interface but through the kind of web interface but that even gets kind of messy because that even gets kind of messy because that even gets kind of messy because there's like um depending on the size of there's like um depending on the size of there's like um depending on the size of your window there's different layouts your window there's different layouts your window there's different layouts and configurations kind of hard to work and configurations kind of hard to work and configurations kind of hard to work with for me granted there are more with for me granted there are more with for me granted there are more features I do find myself leaning into features I do find myself leaning into features I do find myself leaning into this so for this configuration as an this so for this configuration as an this so for this configuration as an example we have the uh start page which example we have the uh start page which example we have the uh start page which is our first page it's just all is our first page it's just all is our first page it's just all organized in this kind of tabbed organized in this kind of tabbed organized in this kind of tabbed hierarchy here you have some settings hierarchy here you have some settings hierarchy here you have some settings for this specific page so it's going to for this specific page so it's going to for this specific page so it's going to be slim so if I open this back up over be slim so if I open this back up over be slim so if I open this back up over here you can see this page is kind of here you can see this page is kind of here you can see this page is kind of wide and if I go over here it does wide and if I go over here it does wide and if I go over here it does tighten it up a little bit I am zoomed tighten it up a little bit I am zoomed tighten it up a little bit I am zoomed in quite a bit but the width is Slim we in quite a bit but the width is Slim we in quite a bit but the width is Slim we have hide desktop navigation false which have hide desktop navigation false which have hide desktop navigation false which is going to be the uh little navigation is going to be the uh little navigation is going to be the uh little navigation bar up here you have Center vertically bar up here you have Center vertically bar up here you have Center vertically and then the columns now for the columns and then the columns now for the columns and then the columns now for the columns you can see I have one column here and a you can see I have one column here and a you can see I have one column here and a column here so this one is set to full column here so this one is set to full column here so this one is set to full but then if I go down I switch this so but then if I go down I switch this so but then if I go down I switch this so you don't see all my uh domains and you don't see all my uh domains and you don't see all my uh domains and tokens there it is where the next column tokens there it is where the next column tokens there it is where the next column starts you can see it's set to size starts you can see it's set to size starts you can see it's set to size small giving it that more kind of small giving it that more kind of small giving it that more kind of sidebar feel and while we're on the sidebar feel and while we're on the sidebar feel and while we're on the sidebar you can see one of the widgets sidebar you can see one of the widgets sidebar you can see one of the widgets here is the DNS stats pie hole the URL here is the DNS stats pie hole the URL here is the DNS stats pie hole the URL and the token and that is it and then and the token and that is it and then and the token and that is it and then it's the same thing right here for image it's the same thing right here for image it's the same thing right here for image this one is using a custom API we have this one is using a custom API we have this one is using a custom API we have image stats one 1 day URL and then here image stats one 1 day URL and then here image stats one 1 day URL and then here since that this is custom you do have to since that this is custom you do have to since that this is custom you do have to kind of create your own little template kind of create your own little template kind of create your own little template here this one is just copied and pasted here this one is just copied and pasted here this one is just copied and pasted directly from the GitHub repository

  6. directly from the GitHub repository directly from the GitHub repository which if I open up the repository under which if I open up the repository under which if I open up the repository under configuration we can see the configuration we can see the configuration we can see the configuration documentation here lots of configuration documentation here lots of configuration documentation here lots of fun stuff so here's all the available fun stuff so here's all the available fun stuff so here's all the available widgets we have the RSS feed video widgets we have the RSS feed video widgets we have the RSS feed video Hacker News Reddit everything that we Hacker News Reddit everything that we Hacker News Reddit everything that we kind of touched the custom API right kind of touched the custom API right kind of touched the custom API right here is where I pulled the uh image here is where I pulled the uh image here is where I pulled the uh image thing so if you go to custom API it kind thing so if you go to custom API it kind thing so if you go to custom API it kind of gives you an over of how it's going of gives you an over of how it's going of gives you an over of how it's going to work we have like a random fact to work we have like a random fact to work we have like a random fact example this is the image stats so this example this is the image stats so this example this is the image stats so this is what I pulled and just popped right is what I pulled and just popped right is what I pulled and just popped right into the configuration worked completely into the configuration worked completely into the configuration worked completely fine good to go there's another one here fine good to go there's another one here fine good to go there's another one here for example uh steam specials and if I for example uh steam specials and if I for example uh steam specials and if I view it you can see it just pulls from a view it you can see it just pulls from a view it you can see it just pulls from a URL little template to set everything up URL little template to set everything up URL little template to set everything up and you're good to go if I scroll back and you're good to go if I scroll back and you're good to go if I scroll back up here it's a pretty big uh up here it's a pretty big uh up here it's a pretty big uh documentation single kind of markdown documentation single kind of markdown documentation single kind of markdown file you do iframe HTML bunch of stuff file you do iframe HTML bunch of stuff file you do iframe HTML bunch of stuff over here under monitor this is probably over here under monitor this is probably over here under monitor this is probably what you're going to use more than what you're going to use more than what you're going to use more than anything and this is their little anything and this is their little anything and this is their little example of how you could set it up so example of how you could set it up so example of how you could set it up so for example we have the title URL icon for example we have the title URL icon for example we have the title URL icon if I scroll down you can get a little if I scroll down you can get a little if I scroll down you can get a little preview you can get all the properties preview you can get all the properties preview you can get all the properties and then there are additional options so and then there are additional options so and then there are additional options so you can show failing only if that's you can show failing only if that's you can show failing only if that's something you wanted to do if you wanted something you wanted to do if you wanted something you wanted to do if you wanted just like a uh little thing on the just like a uh little thing on the just like a uh little thing on the bottom with all your services in there bottom with all your services in there bottom with all your services in there and you only want to see if something's and you only want to see if something's and you only want to see if something's down you could do that you have style so down you could do that you have style so down you could do that you have style so you can compact it down if you want want you can compact it down if you want want you can compact it down if you want want to and then here are all of the to and then here are all of the to and then here are all of the properties so for example alt status properties so for example alt status properties so for example alt status codes I did have to use that for like my codes I did have to use that for like my codes I did have to use that for like my Plex one for instance just because of Plex one for instance just because of Plex one for instance just because of how like the authentication works it

  7. how like the authentication works it how like the authentication works it just was not cooperating but because of just was not cooperating but because of just was not cooperating but because of this it allowed me to have that on there this it allowed me to have that on there this it allowed me to have that on there You' have a separate check URL which I You' have a separate check URL which I You' have a separate check URL which I do so I have the URL which is my local do so I have the URL which is my local do so I have the URL which is my local proxy but the check is going to be the proxy but the check is going to be the proxy but the check is going to be the IP addresses and of course with icons we IP addresses and of course with icons we IP addresses and of course with icons we can use the server icons which is what can use the server icons which is what can use the server icons which is what I'm doing so here is a kind of look at I'm doing so here is a kind of look at I'm doing so here is a kind of look at my configuration right there under uh my configuration right there under uh my configuration right there under uh nzbget was one that wasn't working nzbget was one that wasn't working nzbget was one that wasn't working properly so alt status code so if I get properly so alt status code so if I get properly so alt status code so if I get a 401 or a 403 from that instance it's a 401 or a 403 from that instance it's a 401 or a 403 from that instance it's still going to say that it's uh up and still going to say that it's uh up and still going to say that it's uh up and working fine for Icon you can see I have working fine for Icon you can see I have working fine for Icon you can see I have di which is dashboard icons and zbg I di which is dashboard icons and zbg I di which is dashboard icons and zbg I have the check URL which is just the IP have the check URL which is just the IP have the check URL which is just the IP address and then the actual URL which is address and then the actual URL which is address and then the actual URL which is what is used when I actually click on what is used when I actually click on what is used when I actually click on the link and of course my configuration the link and of course my configuration the link and of course my configuration I didn't completely just write it myself I didn't completely just write it myself I didn't completely just write it myself I just hold theirs and edited the hell I just hold theirs and edited the hell I just hold theirs and edited the hell out of it I believe if we go back to out of it I believe if we go back to out of it I believe if we go back to kind of the home main area we can go kind of the home main area we can go kind of the home main area we can go right here to preconfigured Pages now right here to preconfigured Pages now right here to preconfigured Pages now this is what I used for my start page this is what I used for my start page this is what I used for my start page which is literally called start page I which is literally called start page I which is literally called start page I did change up I added the sidebar here did change up I added the sidebar here did change up I added the sidebar here which gives me an overview of kind of which gives me an overview of kind of which gives me an overview of kind of the things that I care about the most I the things that I care about the most I the things that I care about the most I do wish there was like a uh one for like do wish there was like a uh one for like do wish there was like a uh one for like a little graph for Active download speed a little graph for Active download speed a little graph for Active download speed things like that that would be super things like that that would be super things like that that would be super cool if I was smart enough I would just cool if I was smart enough I would just cool if I was smart enough I would just figure it out and write it myself but figure it out and write it myself but figure it out and write it myself but that's the start page we have that's the start page we have that's the start page we have markets gaming just as some examples and markets gaming just as some examples and markets gaming just as some examples and then you can view the config of how

  8. then you can view the config of how then you can view the config of how those are specifically set up copy paste those are specifically set up copy paste those are specifically set up copy paste switching in out the things that you switching in out the things that you switching in out the things that you care about and life is good and kind of care about and life is good and kind of care about and life is good and kind of a cool thing about this is how quickly a cool thing about this is how quickly a cool thing about this is how quickly it actually updates so if I wanted to it actually updates so if I wanted to it actually updates so if I wanted to for example let's say on home I wanted for example let's say on home I wanted for example let's say on home I wanted to change something let's say I want to to change something let's say I want to to change something let's say I want to give get rid of spy I want to get rid of give get rid of spy I want to get rid of give get rid of spy I want to get rid of the index fund from my uh little markets the index fund from my uh little markets the index fund from my uh little markets widget here all I would do is come over widget here all I would do is come over widget here all I would do is come over here to home and you can see column here to home and you can see column here to home and you can see column small so this is that first sidebar we small so this is that first sidebar we small so this is that first sidebar we have calendar RSS feed then full which have calendar RSS feed then full which have calendar RSS feed then full which is kind of the middle column the middle is kind of the middle column the middle is kind of the middle column the middle larger column we have all the videos and larger column we have all the videos and larger column we have all the videos and whatnot and then right here size weather whatnot and then right here size weather whatnot and then right here size weather this is the last Side Bar you can see I this is the last Side Bar you can see I this is the last Side Bar you can see I have it set to Imperial using my ZIP have it set to Imperial using my ZIP have it set to Imperial using my ZIP code and then right here under markets code and then right here under markets code and then right here under markets we have spy we have spy we have spy so I would go contrl k I think yep so I would go contrl k I think yep so I would go contrl k I think yep contrl KRL K and then crl o output that contrl KRL K and then crl o output that contrl KRL K and then crl o output that and then all we need to do is come over and then all we need to do is come over and then all we need to do is come over here and refresh it and then you can see here and refresh it and then you can see here and refresh it and then you can see spy is gone so we don't need to like spy is gone so we don't need to like spy is gone so we don't need to like restart the server the container a restart the server the container a restart the server the container a darker container anything like that the darker container anything like that the darker container anything like that the actual service pulls from the actual service pulls from the actual service pulls from the configuration upon refresh so you just configuration upon refresh so you just configuration upon refresh so you just make an edit and it's available next make an edit and it's available next make an edit and it's available next time you refresh the page really nice time you refresh the page really nice time you refresh the page really nice now one thing I'm kind of curious about now one thing I'm kind of curious about now one thing I'm kind of curious about his theming here it doesn't really show his theming here it doesn't really show his theming here it doesn't really show uh where to put this exactly in the uh where to put this exactly in the uh where to put this exactly in the configuration but I would assume it configuration but I would assume it configuration but I would assume it would be root as it would affect all the would be root as it would affect all the would be root as it would affect all the pages but just as a little reminder this pages but just as a little reminder this pages but just as a little reminder this is what we look like here and I am going

  9. is what we look like here and I am going is what we look like here and I am going to just add one of these just to see to just add one of these just to see to just add one of these just to see what happens I really like this uh I what happens I really like this uh I what happens I really like this uh I think this Grove box is the default think this Grove box is the default think this Grove box is the default let's try out this camouflage one so I'm let's try out this camouflage one so I'm let's try out this camouflage one so I'm going to go ahead and give this a copy going to go ahead and give this a copy going to go ahead and give this a copy and then let's just drop this right and then let's just drop this right and then let's just drop this right there contrl o and then let's see if there contrl o and then let's see if there contrl o and then let's see if that's all it took refresh yep there we that's all it took refresh yep there we that's all it took refresh yep there we are new theme ready to go easy peasy and are new theme ready to go easy peasy and are new theme ready to go easy peasy and obviously with this you can really just obviously with this you can really just obviously with this you can really just configure the colors exactly how you configure the colors exactly how you configure the colors exactly how you would like to and make it yours now for would like to and make it yours now for would like to and make it yours now for the installation like I said it is the installation like I said it is the installation like I said it is really easy I just again installed mine really easy I just again installed mine really easy I just again installed mine with a little lxc everything is right with a little lxc everything is right with a little lxc everything is right here in the glance folder edit it you're here in the glance folder edit it you're here in the glance folder edit it you're good to go if I go back over here to good to go if I go back over here to good to go if I go back over here to their home homepage on the GitHub their home homepage on the GitHub their home homepage on the GitHub repository scroll down to installation repository scroll down to installation repository scroll down to installation you can see there are a few different you can see there are a few different you can see there are a few different ways so here we have Docker compos using ways so here we have Docker compos using ways so here we have Docker compos using provided directory structure so it looks provided directory structure so it looks provided directory structure so it looks like you're just pulling down a little like you're just pulling down a little like you're just pulling down a little template and you have a Docker compos template and you have a Docker compos template and you have a Docker compos that you spin up uh config glance and that you spin up uh config glance and that you spin up uh config glance and you're good to go so just for you're good to go so just for you're good to go so just for demonstration sake let's just do it demonstration sake let's just do it demonstration sake let's just do it shall we so if I copy this let's head shall we so if I copy this let's head shall we so if I copy this let's head into one of these that I know has Docker into one of these that I know has Docker into one of these that I know has Docker installed let's go to my frigate one installed let's go to my frigate one installed let's go to my frigate one so rout I should just be able to drop so rout I should just be able to drop so rout I should just be able to drop this in there and it's going to make this in there and it's going to make this in there and it's going to make that folder for me so Boop now if I LS that folder for me so Boop now if I LS that folder for me so Boop now if I LS look at that from here you have the look at that from here you have the look at that from here you have the assets the config so the assets folder assets the config so the assets folder assets the config so the assets folder is where you can put like uh custom is where you can put like uh custom is where you can put like uh custom icons things like that config obviously

  10. icons things like that config obviously icons things like that config obviously is going to be the glance yml and we is going to be the glance yml and we is going to be the glance yml and we have a home yml so Nano glance ah have a home yml so Nano glance ah have a home yml so Nano glance ah slightly slightly different structure so slightly slightly different structure so slightly slightly different structure so we have a server option for our asset we have a server option for our asset we have a server option for our asset path we have a theme op option under path we have a theme op option under path we have a theme op option under user CSS and then we have our pages and user CSS and then we have our pages and user CSS and then we have our pages and it will so far only include the home it will so far only include the home it will so far only include the home yaml and the home yaml so if I Nano to yaml and the home yaml so if I Nano to yaml and the home yaml so if I Nano to home that will probably look a little home that will probably look a little home that will probably look a little bit more familiar to me which it does so bit more familiar to me which it does so bit more familiar to me which it does so if I go out of there and for Giggles if I go out of there and for Giggles if I go out of there and for Giggles let's check out that assets folder and let's check out that assets folder and let's check out that assets folder and the only thing in there is that the only thing in there is that the only thing in there is that CSS so if I preview it it's empty so I CSS so if I preview it it's empty so I CSS so if I preview it it's empty so I would just probably copy and paste the would just probably copy and paste the would just probably copy and paste the little kind of configuration theme little kind of configuration theme little kind of configuration theme variables in there then all we really variables in there then all we really variables in there then all we really need to do is spin up that Docker need to do is spin up that Docker need to do is spin up that Docker container so I'll do a Docker compose up container so I'll do a Docker compose up container so I'll do a Docker compose up I'm going to run this without detached I'm going to run this without detached I'm going to run this without detached just so we can kind of see the logs and just so we can kind of see the logs and just so we can kind of see the logs and whatnot so there we go glance is running whatnot so there we go glance is running whatnot so there we go glance is running it's pulling it's created starting it's pulling it's created starting it's pulling it's created starting server on 8080 so this is a 107 so if I server on 8080 so this is a 107 so if I server on 8080 so this is a 107 so if I go to 10 boom boom boom go to 10 boom boom boom go to 10 boom boom boom 107 8080 well yeah look at that we have 107 8080 well yeah look at that we have 107 8080 well yeah look at that we have glance easy peasy running in Docker glance easy peasy running in Docker glance easy peasy running in Docker again I kind of uh demoed it or showed again I kind of uh demoed it or showed again I kind of uh demoed it or showed it off in the very beginning I do have a it off in the very beginning I do have a it off in the very beginning I do have a whole separate video and a whole guide whole separate video and a whole guide whole separate video and a whole guide on Docker kind of a uh pretty short on Docker kind of a uh pretty short on Docker kind of a uh pretty short General use video get you gets you

  11. General use video get you gets you General use video get you gets you familiar with it enough to use it at familiar with it enough to use it at familiar with it enough to use it at least in the uh a little more than what least in the uh a little more than what least in the uh a little more than what I just did obviously but if we go over I just did obviously but if we go over I just did obviously but if we go over here that is the recommended way to do here that is the recommended way to do here that is the recommended way to do it they do have a manual kind of Docker it they do have a manual kind of Docker it they do have a manual kind of Docker compos that you could go Ahad and play compos that you could go Ahad and play compos that you could go Ahad and play with of course we have uh the biner with of course we have uh the biner with of course we have uh the biner installation which is how it's installed installation which is how it's installed installation which is how it's installed on my machine through the proxmox script on my machine through the proxmox script on my machine through the proxmox script and then if you hate yourself apparently and then if you hate yourself apparently and then if you hate yourself apparently there's a way to do it on Windows oh there's a way to do it on Windows oh there's a way to do it on Windows oh look and there's the other so here's the look and there's the other so here's the look and there's the other so here's the proxmark script NYX package and whatever proxmark script NYX package and whatever proxmark script NYX package and whatever that is so yeah that is my new favorite that is so yeah that is my new favorite that is so yeah that is my new favorite dashboard for my home lab it's simple dashboard for my home lab it's simple dashboard for my home lab it's simple it's pretty I like it it's going to be it's pretty I like it it's going to be it's pretty I like it it's going to be easy to carry around my configuration easy to carry around my configuration easy to carry around my configuration file with me no matter what I do and I'm file with me no matter what I do and I'm file with me no matter what I do and I'm probably soon going to publish it on probably soon going to publish it on probably soon going to publish it on that GitHub repository for my home lab that GitHub repository for my home lab that GitHub repository for my home lab have a lot of updating to do on that have a lot of updating to do on that have a lot of updating to do on that before I uh push out that uh mus have before I uh push out that uh mus have before I uh push out that uh mus have Services video so do be watching out for Services video so do be watching out for Services video so do be watching out for that and with all that I do hope you that and with all that I do hope you that and with all that I do hope you have an absolutely beautiful day and have an absolutely beautiful day and have an absolutely beautiful day and goodbye

Summary

The main theme is using dashboards to enhance a home server environment, with key mentions of specific dashboard applications like Homepage, Heimdall, Home Assistant, and Glance. The practical takeaway is that Glance is a visually appealing and simply configured dashboard for managing a home server, easy to install and mobile-friendly, although less feature-rich than some alternatives.
