Host Homarr in Home Assistant (alien.top)

Hey r/selfhosted community!

​

I'm thrilled to introduce a new Home Assistant add-on: Homarr Server. This add-on is crafted for those who are running Home Assistant and looking for a straightforward way to self-host additional services directly on their HA server – without the need for separate hosting hardware.

​

👉What is Homarr Server?

Homarr Server is an add-on for Home Assistant that allows you to host the Homarr dashboard directly on your Home Assistant server. It's perfect for users who want to keep their self-hosted ecosystem centralized and don't have the luxury of dedicated hosting hardware. I realize that this is probably not for everyone here, but for some it might seem useful.

​

🏠Why Homarr Server?

So I got this request from someone who didn't really have anywhere else to host it locally and was wondering if it was able to use their HA instance to host it.

​

🚀Easy Setup:

Homarr Server is designed for ease of use. Simply add the repo to your Home Assistant instance, install the add-on, start the add-on, and access your Homarr dashboard at the provided URL. It's that straightforward!

Your feedback, thoughts, and experiences are much appreciated, as they will help in refining and improving the add-on.

P.S. A heartfelt thank you to the r/selfhosted community for being a constant source of inspiration!

For monitoring? I can suggest Uptime Kuma in that case.

Isn't Homarr a dashboard?

It is but it can't do auto-detection of running services unfortunately
