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!

    Heimdall or Dashy are the first things that come to mind. However, what I would do in your case is using local URLs that you can resolve via a local DNS like pihole. That way, you don’t have to remember IPs and ports, but just services. If you need different ports, you might need a proxy in between, which is also set up fairly quickly with nginx.
