The full story
Lantern is a minimal, macOS-style start page for a homelab, vibe-coded with Claude: app-icon tiles for self-hosted services that wiggle when you edit them, a frosted bookmarks window, web search with a choice of engines, weather and air quality from Open-Meteo, and wallpapers. It has no database and no npm dependencies and runs in one small container.
