## What it is
DashMachine is a self-hosted web application bookmark dashboard for organizing links to your services and apps on a single homepage. It runs as a Python web app or Docker container, includes login authentication, configurable cards, and extra fun features like notes and themes.

## Use cases
- self-hosted dashboard for organizing my homelab apps
- bookmark dashboard to keep links to all my self-hosted services in one place
- start page / homepage for the web apps I run at home
- web portal to launch my docker containers from a browser
- simple login-protected dashboard to manage my self-hosted applications

## When to choose
- You want a lightweight, self-hosted bookmark/start-page dashboard for homelab services
- You prefer a simple Docker deployment with a mounted user_data folder for configuration
- You want a basic login-protected dashboard with a few fun extra widgets rather than deep service integrations

## When to avoid
- You need actively maintained software with recent updates and security fixes (last release was 2022)
- You need rich per-service integrations, live stats widgets, or extensive theming found in newer dashboards like Homepage or Homarr
- You plan to expose it publicly - it ships with default admin/admin credentials and is meant for a trusted home network
