Hi everyone!

I recently created a user-friendly WiFi portal that runs on my private LAN. The goal was to provide my family with quick access to WiFi information without them needing to ask me for it. After searching for a similar solution and not finding one, I decided to build it myself!

Some of the key features:

  • Login info hidden unless you explicitly click on it.
  • Generates QR code for your use.
  • Mobile and PWA support.
  • Tags to help identify when to use each network.

I’m not a web developer, so I would really appreciate any feedback or suggestions on how to improve the app. Thanks for your support!

        That would require me to unlock the door of my basement cave and interact with my family during daylight hours. Fuck that.

        I’d rather spend ten times the time writing code to so that
