A self-hosted static dashboard designed for the Tesla browser — launch all your apps in fullscreen with a single tap.

---

How it works

Tesla's browser can open any URL fullscreen using a YouTube redirect trick. Tesdash wraps every app link with:

https://www.youtube.com/redirect?q=<your-url>

This is applied automatically at build time — you just add URLs to the config file.

Stack

Layer	Technology
Framework	Astro 6 (SSG)
Interactive islands	Svelte 5 (Clock, URL Launcher)
Styling	Tailwind CSS 4 + DaisyUI 5
Config	YAML parsed at build time with js-yaml
Logo color extraction	sharp (dominant color from logo image)
Runtime	Bun

Features

• Fullscreen launcher — every app opens fullscreen via the Tesla YouTube redirect
• Per-app fullscreen toggle — set fullscreen: false on any app to open it in a normal tab instead
• Glassmorphism UI — dark theme with backdrop blur and per-app accent color extracted from the logo
• Spotlight effect — radial gradient follows cursor/finger across each card (disabled on touch for performance)
• Category drag & drop — reorder categories by dragging the handle; order persists in localStorage
• Add custom apps — tap the + button to add any app at runtime without touching the config
• URL launcher — type any URL and open it fullscreen instantly
• Language & Region modal — 13 interface languages; country filter hides apps unavailable in your region
• Regional app support — apps can be limited to specific countries via regions: in the config
• EV charging calculator — calculates charge time, cost and energy for all Tesla models with a dual-range battery slider
• Live clock — updates every second
• Touch optimized — all interactions work on the Tesla touchscreen
• PWA ready — web manifest and icons configured for home screen installation
• Zero JS for static content — cards and layout are pure HTML, JS only loads for interactive islands

Getting started

# Install dependencies
bun install

# Start dev server
bun dev

# Build static output → /dist
bun run build

# Preview build
bun run preview

Self-hosting with Docker

A Docker image is available at ghcr.io/crstian19/tesdash. It builds the static output with Bun and serves it with nginx.

docker run -p 8080:80 ghcr.io/crstian19/tesdash:latest

Or with Docker Compose:

services:
  tesdash:
    image: ghcr.io/crstian19/tesdash:latest
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
    restart: unless-stopped

Images are published automatically on every version tag for amd64 and arm64.

Releases

releaser-pleaser keeps a release PR open with the next version and CHANGELOG.md, computed from the Conventional Commits on main: feat bumps the minor, fix the patch, ! the major. PRs are squash-merged, so the PR title is the commit and has to follow Conventional Commits (a check enforces it). Renovate commits runtime dependency updates as fix(deps), so they ship in the next patch release; dev dependency and CI updates are chore(deps).

Merging the release PR tags vX.Y.Z, creates the GitHub release and builds the image. The workflow authenticates as the crstian19-releaser GitHub App (secrets RELEASER_APP_CLIENT_ID and RELEASER_APP_PRIVATE_KEY), because a tag pushed with GITHUB_TOKEN would not start the build.

Configuration

Edit src/data/config.yml to add, remove or reorganize apps. No code changes needed.

categories:
  - name: Streaming
    apps:
      - name: Netflix
        url: https://www.netflix.com
        logo: /logos/netflix.png   # local path or remote URL
        color: "#E50914"           # optional — auto-extracted from logo if omitted
        regions: ['ES', 'GB']      # optional — hide app outside these countries
        fullscreen: false          # optional — open without YouTube redirect (default: true)

Logo sources

• Local: place PNG/SVG/WebP files in public/logos/ and reference them as /logos/filename.png
• Remote: use any direct image URL (fetched at build time)
• Auto color: if color is omitted, the dominant color is extracted from the logo automatically
