# LabDeck: A Homelab Dashboard Theme for Ghost

**[Noted](https://daily.dev/sources/noted)** · [@noted](https://daily.dev/noted) · 5 min read · 6 upvotes · 1 comments

## Summary

LabDeck is a Ghost theme that turns a Ghost blog into a homelab dashboard, letting self-hosters organize their services, monitor server and Docker stats via Netdata integration, maintain a knowledge base, save links, and follow YouTube channels via RSS. Services, docs, and bookmarks are managed through ordinary Ghost posts and tags, and the theme includes a password-protected login page for private installations. The latest version adds a custom dark-themed private-site login page.

## Questions this post answers

### Is there a Ghost theme designed for homelab dashboards instead of blogging?

LabDeck is a Ghost theme built specifically for homelab and self-hosting dashboards. It turns Ghost into a service launcher with drag-and-drop organization, Netdata-powered server and Docker container monitoring, a knowledge base for documentation, a links directory, YouTube RSS subscriptions, and a password-protected private login page, all managed through ordinary Ghost posts and tags.

_Homelab builders comparing dashboard options can track theme releases like this one on daily.dev._

### How can I monitor Docker containers and server stats on a self-hosted dashboard without a separate monitoring stack?

LabDeck pulls container and server statistics directly from Netdata's monitoring data and displays them as compact cards and detailed graphs for CPU, memory, disk, network, and GPU usage. Netdata integration is optional since demo statistics let the dashboard keep its appearance without an active monitoring connection, and the container view is read-only.

_Developers wiring up self-hosted monitoring can follow tooling like Netdata on daily.dev._
