[Support] nextDash - A lightweight, keyboard-driven bookmark dashboard

Hi everyone,

I would like to introduce nextDash, a lightweight, self-hosted bookmark dashboard that I've developed. It’s designed for power users who want a minimalist, fast, and highly customizable interface.

I am the developer (github.com/jordibrouwer/nextDash) and I would like to make this template available via Community Applications.

What is nextDash?

nextDash is based on the minimalist philosophy of ThinkDashboard but expanded with extensive features for modern self-hosted environments. It’s perfect for managing your home lab services, bookmarks, and external links with a focus on speed and keyboard navigation. It can really speed up your workflow.

Core Features:

• Minimalist & Fast: Clean, text-based interface optimized for performance.

• Keyboard-Driven: Open bookmarks via shortcuts (e.g., type "yt" for YouTube) or use fuzzy search (/). You can edit them with ;. Add a bookmark with ctrl+shift+A or via the "bookmarks" config page where you can add them in bulk.

• Highly Customizable: Includes 32 built-in themes, custom CSS/color support, multiple fonts and adjustable layouts (Masonry, Cards, List, etc.) and a lot of custom options.

• Status Monitoring: Real-time online/offline detection and ping times for your bookmarked services.

• Multi-Page & Categories: Organize bookmarks across multiple pages and collapsible categories.

• Self-Hosted & Private: All data is stored locally in simple JSON files.

• PWA Support: Installable as a Progressive Web App on desktop and mobile.

• Smart Collections: Automatically generates sections for "Recently Opened", "Most Used", and "Stale Bookmarks".

• Local weather: add your location and get personalised weather updates.

Technical Details:

• Docker Image: ghcr.io/jordibrouwer/nextdash:latest

• Port: 8080 (Configurable via Environment Variable PORT)

• Volume: /app/data for persistent storage of settings
