Homemaker - Your New Favorite Browser Homepage
I got tired of seeing the boring homepages offered by search engines and browsers so I set out to create a custom homepage for myself. I wanted multiple background options that persisted across browser instances and tabs and customizable links that can be navigated to with keybindings. I am trying to stop using the mouse as much as I can and this makes it easy to reach my most commonly used sites. Not to mention it looks really great!
Whenever I make something for myself, I ask the question, how can I make this easy for anyone to implement. Homemaker is a simple python script that reads a config file containing style options, links, keybinds and parses a folder containing the backgrounds of your choice, then compiles the homepage website for you! You can host your site wherever you want and update all of your devices to point to it.

NOTE: My git instance is weird, if you try to clone this repo (or any repo) and it errors out for you… just try like 5 times and it will eventually work. IDK what the issue is, and I don’t really care to fix it at the moment.
