Hackerman
A hacker style control room for your own network
Built by Kshitij Bhatnagar
A gamified, hacker themed control room for your own home network and devices, served by a zero dependency Node server behind a passcode.
The spark
I wanted one playful place to see and manage what is on my own home network, instead of digging through router pages and system settings.
What was built
I built a small Node server with no dependencies and an installable PWA in front of it: a passcode gate, a playful terminal style dashboard of the devices on my own network, and a Keychain backed reveal for saved Wi-Fi passwords.
Architecture
- Zero dependency Node server
- Binds to localhost only, passcode gate
- Installable PWA front end
Highlights
- Game like network dashboard
- Saved Wi-Fi password reveal
- No dependencies at all
- Only for networks you own
