What you see
URL: /
The dashboard is the home page after login. It provides a high-level overview of your infrastructure through six navigation cards, each showing a count and brief description of the resource it represents.
Navigation cards
| Card | Count shows | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Hosts | Total registered hosts | Servers in your inventory, with status breakdown |
| K3s Clusters | Total clusters | Lightweight Kubernetes clusters managed by PodWarden |
| Deployments | Total assignments | stack templates bound to clusters |
| Deployments | Total deployments | Deployment history across all clusters |
| Provisioning | Total jobs | Server provisioning jobs with status breakdown |
| Settings | -- | System configuration, users, and integrations |
Clicking any card navigates to the corresponding page.
