Arcana Light - A Clean Homepage

A keyboard (or mouse) driven homepage designed to be simple and show only the essentials.

Comes with a companion python script that allows for easier managing.

All configuration options can be found in the js/settings.js file.

If you would like to easily add / remove categories or links, then check out the companion python script named settings.py. You can find it in the root directory of this homepage.

Weather

The weather is shown in the top right of the screen. You can change it to match your location through the js/settings.js file.

News

This uses the newsapi.org API in order to pull in head lines.

Categories

Categories can be added through the settings.js file or through the settings.py command line utility. The icon should be the name of a font awesome icon. When the categories are generated, the "fa-" is automatically prepended to the icon name found in the settings file.

Links are defined within the categories. The full url is expected for the link field (including the http://). The name can be whatever. It is what is shown in the interface.

You can easily add a new category with:

./settings.py category add icon-name

You should replace "icon-name" with the actual name of the Font Awesome icon

Key Shortcuts

This start page was design with keyboard shortcuts in mind. To access any of the categories, you can press the number 1-10. The first category could be selected with a "1", the next category with a "2", and so on.

Once you have selected a category, you can move up and down the links through the arrow keys. Alternatively you can use the "j" and "k" key.

Key Shortcut Use
1-10 Open a category
j/k Move up and down through the links
alt + enter Focus the search bar
