Your Own Family~Personal Intranet Open Source
I got tired of re-building auth every time I vibe-coded something to solve a small idea
Add what you want it is your personal intranet
Every time you vibe-code a little tool, you hit the same wall.

Auth. Database. DNS. SSL. You spend more time on infrastructure than on the actual idea. And then you want your partner to use it too — so now you’re managing user accounts and worrying about security for a shopping list.
You do it once for a recipe app. Again for a movie tracker. Again for a bookmarks tool. Three apps, three deploys, three sets of the same boring problems. The thing you actually wanted to build? That was the easy part.
What if you only had to solve that once?
That’s the idea. One platform. One login. One deploy. Then you just build little apps inside it — or pull in plugins other people have made.
Your family gets one link, one account, and access to everything you’ve built. Recipes, a watchlist, a shopping list — all in one place, all behind the same auth.
The AI part is what makes it fun
The other thing that changes the experience: you don’t type data in. You point AI at it.
Snap a photo of a wine bottle — it reads the label and fills in everything:

Take a picture of a recipe or paste messy text — AI structures it into a proper recipe with ingredients, steps, and tags:

Type “Severance” — AI fetches the summary, tells you it’s on Apple TV+, tags it as a thriller, and grabs the poster:

No forms. No data entry. Just point it at something and go.
Or just build whatever you want
The repo has docs that teach your AI assistant how the plugin system works. So you can literally say:
“I want an app to track bookmarks. Use AI to grab the TLDR of each URL and auto-tag it.”
And Claude Code (or Codex, or Cursor) will build it for you — client, server, database, everything — because the platform handles the rest.
If someone else already built what you want, pull it in from a GitHub repo. One click in the admin panel.
Try it
It’s open source. Deploy it on Railway (or anywhere that runs Docker) and you’re up in minutes. One server, one SQLite database, all your apps.
