homescreen-hero

homescreen-hero is a web dashboard for Plex users who want control over their library presentation and user experience. It combines collection management, automation, personalization, and server administration in a single self-hosted application. Users can build customizable dashboards with drag-and-drop widgets, create smart collection rotations with rule-based filtering, and target content to specific Plex users for personalized homescreens.

The app includes features like syncing collections from external sources (Trakt, Letterboxd, MDBList, TMDb, AniList, MAL), sharing custom collections via JSON or codes, and Plex-specific tools such as date editing, watch history management, and unwatched reports. According to the creator, the project was built with substantial help from AI coding tools, particularly for frontend development and iteration.
