Build Your Dashboard

Heimdall gives your homelab a simple home page with links to every service.

Deploy Heimdall

1. Open Dockhand at http://CONTAINER-IP:3000.
2. Open Stacks, choose New Stack, select an internal stack, and name it heimdall.
3. Paste this Compose file into the editor:

services:
  heimdall:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/heimdall:latest
    container_name: heimdall
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      PUID: "0"
      PGID: "0"
      TZ: Etc/UTC
      ALLOW_INTERNAL_REQUESTS: "true"
    volumes:
      - ./config:/config
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
      - "8443:443"

4. Choose Deploy and wait for the container to show as running.
5. Open http://CONTAINER-IP:8080.

The host ports 8080 and 8443 avoid Heimdall’s internal ports 80 and 443, leaving those common host ports free.

Add your first links

In Heimdall, choose Add an application and add:

• Proxmox: https://PROXMOX-IP:8006
• Dockhand: http://CONTAINER-IP:3000

Save the working dashboard

In Proxmox, select the Debian container, open Snapshots, choose Take Snapshot, and name it working-dashboard.

Your homelab now has a front door and a restore point.
