Lantern Home runs on a computer you own, in Docker. These guides take you from nothing to the family’s hub on the wall, and keep it there.
Start here
Section titled “Start here”- Installing Lantern Home: what it needs, the install, upgrades, and backups.
- Reverse proxy and HTTPS: HTTPS in front of it, which sign-in, offline use, and notifications need.
- Displays: a screen on the wall, from a mini PC, a Raspberry Pi, or a tablet.
Use it
Section titled “Use it”- Getting started: the household, the family, the first display, and phones.
- The calendar, chores, routines, and rewards, lists and to-dos, meals and recipes, and photos.
- Using a wall display, on phones, and settings.
Connect it
Section titled “Connect it”- Calendars: Google, Apple, and Proton, and Lantern’s calendar in other apps.
- The household’s inbox, for invites.
- AI, if you want it.
- Notifications, on phones and computers.
