HOPS v1.5.0 — Initial release

HOPS (Home Operations Portal System) is a self-hosted homepage dashboard for your homelab, configured entirely through a GUI — no YAML or JSON files.

🏠 Landing page: https://weaversgrainthorpe.github.io/HOPS/
📖 Quick Start: https://github.com/weaversgrainthorpe/HOPS/blob/main/QUICKSTART.md
🐳 Docker image: ghcr.io/weaversgrainthorpe/hops:latest (multi-arch: amd64 + arm64)

Highlights

• GUI-first editor — Drag-and-drop tiles, groups, and tabs. Add anything by clicking, never by editing a config file. Cancel any edit and nothing changes — every action is committed only on Create/Save.
• Multiple dashboards at different URLs (/home, /network, /media, etc.) from one install. Each dashboard has its own tabs, groups, tiles, background, and theme.
• Public dashboards, private admin — http://<host>:8080/<dashboard-path> needs no login, so dashboards can be shared with family, pinned to wall tablets, or scanned via QR. The admin page at / is the only thing behind authentication.
• Built-in QR code generator — A scannable QR for any dashboard URL from the admin panel. Open dashboards on a phone without typing.
• Single binary + SQLite. No external runtime dependencies. Multi-arch Docker image (linux/amd64 + linux/arm64 — works on Raspberry Pi 3B+/4/5/Zero 2 W).
• ~7,000 bundled icons plus 18 curated categories of generic Iconify icons (Containers, Media, Networking, Audio, Cameras & Surveillance, Smart Home & Sensors, and more) plus full Iconify search across 200,000+ icons plus custom image uploads.
• Move and copy groups and tiles between tabs from the editor (in addition to drag-and-drop within a tab).
• Background slideshow with 64 curated images, per-dashboard or per-tab. 20+ transition effects including a Random mode that picks a different one each slide.
• Optional per-tile status checks showing up/down indicators.
• Auto-fetch favicon for tiles where no Iconify icon fits.
• Imports your existing config from Homer, Dashy, or Heimdall — try HOPS without redoing your bookmarks.
• Built-in security — forced password change on first login, bcrypt password hashing, CSRF protection on all mutations, HttpOnly session cookies, path-traversal hardening, rate limiting, security headers, graceful shutdown.
• Mobile-friendly — responsive layout adapts at 480px / 768px / 1024px breakpoints. Editing is desktop/tablet; browsing and tile-opening work everywhere.
• Robust save pipeline — every mutation runs through a serialized queue against the latest state, eliminating the stale-snapshot races that can cause data loss when users drag, edit, and delete in rapid succession.
