monoki Docs & install

Self-hosted · one binary

Every app you run, on one page.

A home screen for the web apps you host yourself. Paste a link — monoki reads the title and the icon on your own server. Arrange them on a board. Share a board with the people you run things with.

How it works

01

Paste a link

Anywhere on the board. There is a button too, and a keyboard shortcut, but pasting is the whole idea.

02

Your server reads the page

It fetches the title and the best icon once, and stores them. Because that happens on your machine, it works for apps on nas.lan that no public service could ever reach.

03

It's on the board

Drag it where it belongs — or hold Shift and use the arrow keys, which does exactly the same thing without a mouse.

Group what belongs together

Home, Media, Infra — each group is its own board. Switch with a click or the number keys. Reorder anything by dragging, or hold Shift and use the arrow keys.

Home Media Infra

Share "Media"

People you pick can see and open these apps. An editor can also add, edit and rearrange them — nobody but you can rename the group, share it further, or delete it.

Share a board, not your password

Pick who can see a group, and whether they can change it. They get the same board you do — same tiles, same keyboard navigation, not a degraded copy.

Nobody you share with can share it onward, so "who can see this?" always has one answer. Take it back at any time.

What you get

Icons from your own host

monoki fetches each icon once, server-side, and serves it itself. Opening your home screen makes zero third-party requests, and no favicon service learns what you run.

One static binary

No runtime, no interpreter, no sidecar. Drop it on a box and run it.

One file to back up

SQLite — accounts, boards, links, and the icon images themselves, all in monoki.db.

Users and roles

Admin-invited accounts, no open sign-up. Admins manage people — not other people's boards.

Keyboard-first

Arrow keys to move, Shift+arrows to rearrange, / to filter, n to add.

Light and dark

Follows your system, or pin it. Per-tile plates rescue logos that would vanish either way.

Works as a phone home screen

Add it to your home screen and it opens as a launcher, three columns wide.

Nothing phones home

No telemetry, no accounts anywhere else, no CDN. The only host it talks to is the one you bookmarked.

Put it on a machine you own
