Nowadays, we have too many web pages to visit every day. Although Chrome is very useful and has a 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 an open-source project by a foreign expert. You can search for Lissy93/dashy on GitHub.
Let me briefly explain why I'm sharing this project:
Supports multi-page management#
Completely free and open-source#
Easy installation, supports Docker#
Pages support Chinese!#
So, let's proceed with the installation using Docker, with just one command.
- SSH into your terminal.
- Enter the command
docker run -d -p 4000:80 lissy93/dashy
to pull and start the container. - Access the front-end by visiting http://ip:4000.
4. First, let's change the language to Chinese.
5. Click on the top right corner to edit the page, then add a new section.
6. I created a new section here called "Search Websites". You can set the icon for this section (requires an image address), as well as sorting methods, rows, and columns.
- After creating the section, we can now add items.
8. Let's take Baidu as an example.
After creating it, let's save and see the effect. Then I added Google and Bing as well.
9. I randomly added their icons, so it doesn't look aesthetically pleasing. Let me mention some of its other features. You can explore them on your own.
10. Theme and layout can be modified, and themes support editing. There are many themes available.
11. Supports cloud backup and synchronization.
12. Supports search and custom styles.
Overall, this navigation site is quite good, and many things can be customized. If you're interested, you can try installing it yourself. Then, after setting up reverse proxy and binding a domain (which I've written about multiple times before), you can have your own navigation site.
