Important Note

  • I'm using the backdrop-filter property to have the blur effect for the panels. If you're using Firefox, find layout.css.backdrop-filter.enabled then enable it.

  • You can now set your default search engine and OpenWeatherMap credentials using the GUI. It uses the window.localStorage so it's completely safe. I also provided a button that will allow you to delete/clear your credentials.

  • Openweather map API key is not included!

    How to get a credentials for the weather forecast?

    • OpenWeatherMap is the weather provider, so go to OpenWeatherMap's website.
    • Register, log-in, and then go here to generate your very own API keys.
    • Put your credentials in the settings in settings panel.
  • You can easily add a button on the dock and web menu by just adding website name, icon name, and website url in an array. Open js/sites-list.js. Make sure to put an icon with .svg extension for that website in assets/webcons/.

  • Add your own keyboard bindings in js/keybindings.js.

  • The code could be better, this is my first time writing a startpage from the ground up. I will improve this from time to time.

  • Found a bug, error or do you have a suggestion, feel free to open an issue or pull request.

  • Tested only on Firefox and Google Chrome.
