Dashboarr is the open-source mobile companion for your self-hosted media server.

Nothing is routed through a third-party cloud, no analytics, no telemetry. Your data stays on your devices and your network. OPEN SOURCE Licensed under GPL-3.0. The full source code is on GitHub. No hidden monetization, no paywalls — pure functionality for people who host their own stack. REQUIREMENTS You need to already be running the services you want to manage (qBittorrent, Radarr, Sonarr, etc.). Dashboarr is a control interface — it does not host or stream content itself, and it does not provide any media. Built for self-hosters, home-lab enthusiasts, and anyone tired of juggling nine browser tabs to manage their home server.

Sill shows a window from your Mac, or its whole desktop, on your iPhone or iPad, and lets you use it with touch, a keyboard, a touchscreen trackpad or Apple Pencil. It streams straight from your Mac to your device over your own network, so there is no account to create and no server in between. You pair each device once, and every connection is encrypted. Both parts are free: the Sill app for iPhone and iPad, and Sill for Mac.
