## What is homepage?

`homepage` is an open-source, highly customizable, and static site-based dashboard designed to organize your self-hosted services into a beautiful, central hub.

Unlike other dashboards that require complex databases or heavy backend services, homepage runs as a lightweight, Docker-based container that reads a single configuration file (YAML).

## Docker Compose Example

``` yaml
# homepage - docker compose
--- 
services:
  homepage:
    container_name: homepage
    image: ghcr.io/gethomepage/homepage:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - /mnt/store/app/homepage/configs:/app/config # Make sure your local config directory exists
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock # (optional) For docker integrations
    ports:
      - 7676:3000
```
