  • oh, you can make it as aesthetical pleasing as you want, and put just the right amount of info. I've got three tabs, one is to control the room I'm at, another one is my homepage dashboard and the last one is just info about the machines that host my homelab, and that one looks amazing, I used this code someone share, had to tweak it a bit but super happy with the result

  • Unrelated but selfhosted Kasmweb is a great way to bring use back to old and slow tablets. I use it so I can run a remote version of Firefox due to the fact the tablet doesn't have enough RAM to run it natively.
