👋 Hey! If you're using this fork for theming, auto switching, or docker support, I'd recommend checking out Bento-next
Bento-next is my fork of Bento, entirely rewritten in Vue 3, with many more features that don't fit as well upstream. You can now host it with a Docker image, or on GitHub Pages.
- Easy configuration file.
- Dark/Light mode, you can toggle it and will be saved in local storage.
- Layouts! to customize your experience following your workflow.
- Clock and Date format can be set to 24 hour (default) or 12 hour.
- Greetings are easy to modify.
- Variables for custom colors and font sizes in the
app.css
code. - Icons all icons are from Lucide icons.
- Modular javascript files for an easy read.
- Fork this repo
- Enable the Github Pages service
Settings → GitHub Pages → Source [master branch] → Save
- Set it as Home Page:
- Click the menu button. and select Options. Preferences.
- Click the Home panel.
- Click the menu next to Homepage and new windows and choose to show custom URLs and add your
Github Pages link
You can use different Add-ons/Extensions for it
- If you use Firefox: Custom New Tab Page and make sure you enable "Force links to open in the top frame (experimental)" in the extension's preferences page.
- If you use Chromium (Brave, Vivaldi, Chrome): Custom New Tab URL
Note: the current published docker image is built from the upstream repo.*
You can run Bento in a Docker Container, either with docker run
, or with the included docker-compose
file.
- Clone this repo to pull the config.js file:
git clone https://github.com/migueravila/Bento/
- Run the following
docker
command, providing the path to the config.js file, changing port mappings if needed. # docker run -it -d -p 80:80 -v <config.js location>:/usr/share/nginx/html/config.js lewisdoesstuff/bento
- Clone this repo with
git clone https://github.com/migueravila/Bento/
- Edit port mappings, and provide a path to the config.js file in
docker-compose.yml
cd
into the cloned repo, then run# docker-compose -d up
to start.
All customization can be managed in the config.js
file:
To change the default name, the greetings and if you want to have an image background or open your links in new tabs, edit the first configs in the config.js
.
// General
name: 'John',
openInNewTab: true,
twelveHourFormat: false,
title: 'Bento',
// Theme
theme: 'bento',
imageBackground: false,
imageUrl: './assets/background.jpg', // Set custom background image URL. If the page is served insecurely, you may have issues loading images from pages over https.
// Greetings
greetingMorning: 'Good morning!',
greetingAfternoon: 'Good afternoon,',
greetingEvening: 'Good evening,',
greetingNight: 'Go to Sleep!',
You can change the background by providing a link to an image in
config.js
.
Bento has three different layouts bento
, lists
& buttons
. It allows you to cutomize your experience giving you more buttons or lists depending on how are you more comfortable. To modify the laout you need to change the following line in the config.js
file:
// Layout
bentoLayout: 'bento', // 'bento', 'lists', 'buttons'
If you want to customize all your extra buttons and lists go to 🏷️ Buttons & Links & 📑 Lists & Links sections.
To edit the buttons you just need to change the follow list in the config.js
file by choosing a link, an icon from Lucide icons and a name. If you're using the buttons
layout you can customize secondButtonsContainer
firstButtonsContainer: [
{
id: '1',
name: 'Github',
icon: 'github',
link: 'https://github.com/',
},
{
id: '2',
name: 'Mail',
icon: 'mail',
link: 'https://mail.protonmail.com/',
},
{
id: '3',
name: 'Todoist',
icon: 'trello',
link: 'https://todoist.com',
},
{
id: '4',
name: 'Calendar',
icon: 'calendar',
link: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/r',
},
{
id: '5',
name: 'Reddit',
icon: 'glasses',
link: 'https://reddit.com',
},
{
id: '6',
name: 'Odysee',
icon: 'youtube',
link: 'https://odysee.com/',
},
],
The same happens with the list links, you can change the list icon (also using Lucide icons) and the links. If you're using the lists
layout you can customize secondListsContainer
, you can find it bellow firstListsContainer
.
firstlistsContainer: [
{
icon: 'music',
id: '1',
links: [
{
name: 'Inspirational',
link: 'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ',
},
