Nowadays, we have to visit too many web pages every day. Although Chrome is very useful with its powerful tab system, it always feels like something is missing. Today, I'm going to share an open-source navigation website system called dashy. This is a project by a foreign expert, which can be found on GitHub by searching for Lissy93/dashy.
Let me briefly explain why I'm sharing this project:
- Supports multi-page management
- Completely free and open-source
- Easy to install, supports Docker
- Pages support Chinese!
Next, we will install it using Docker, with just one command.
- Connect to your terminal via SSH.
- Enter the command "docker run -d -p 4000:80 lissy93/dashy" to pull and start the container.
- Access the front-end page at http://ip:4000 to see that it has started.
- First, let's change the language to Chinese.
- Click on "Edit Page" in the upper right corner, and then add a new section.
-
I created a new section here called "Search Websites". You can set the icon for this section (requires image address), as well as sorting method, rows and columns, and other configurations.
-
After creating the section, we can now add items.
- I'll use Baidu as an example here.
After creating it, let's save and see the effect. Then I added Google and Bing as well.
-
I added their icons randomly, so it doesn't look aesthetically pleasing. Let me mention some of its other features. You can explore them on your own.
-
Themes and layouts can be modified, and themes can be edited. There are many themes available.
- Supports cloud backup and synchronization.
- Supports search and custom styles.
Overall, this navigation website is quite good, with many customizable features. If you're interested, you can try installing it yourself. Then, by setting up reverse proxy and binding a domain name (which I have written about multiple times before), you can have your own navigation website.
