Nice setup! I particularly like the kitchenowl deployment - it's such an amazing tool and relatively unknown.

One suggestion: the title header says "Family homepage", yet the page contains admin tools that none other than you will ever use. I noticed that all this "admin clutter" was so off-putting that it kept others from actually using the dashboard. I've therefore created another homepage instance that showcases user-facing services only. It makes the UI much cleaner - and users more likely to actually find the services they may be looking for.

Ooooo good idea. Maybe I'll do that. The categories are collapsible too so I had put admin tools 3rd so on mobile you'd have to scroll passed the rest of it to see admin. Thanks for the suggestion.
