🔐 Your privacy-focused everyday dashboard. 🖥️📈
One HTML file. No server. No tracking. Your data, your control.

LinkLife is a personal start-page and link dashboard that lives entirely inside a single index.html file.
You download it, open it in your browser, and it's ready to use — no installation, no account, no internet connection required to run it.
Organize your daily links, services, tools, and widgets across tabs and tiles. Everything you add is saved privately in your own browser and can be backed up anywhere you choose.
Want to verify that nothing shady is happening? Paste index.html into any AI and ask it to check for network calls, tracking, or data exfiltration. Everything is readable — there's nothing to hide.
- Download
index.htmlfrom this repository - Open it in your browser (double-click, or drag it into a browser window)
- Start customizing — click the ✎ pencil buttons that appear directly on tiles and tabs to edit them
That's it. No npm, no build step, no server.
LinkLife works best when it's the first thing you see every time you open your browser. Chrome makes this easy.
1. Open Chrome settings
2. Search for startup settings
3. Click to add a startup page
4. Enter the local path to your index.html
Use the file:/// prefix followed by the full path, e.g. file:///C:/Users/you/LinkLife/index.html.
Now restart Chrome — LinkLife is your home page:
With a Chrome extension like New Tab Redirect, you can make LinkLife open on every new tab — so your dashboard is always one Ctrl+T away.
Chrome's split view and native drag-and-drop make LinkLife a powerful workspace hub.
Chrome now supports split view — drag any link from LinkLife to the left or right side of your browser window to open it side by side with your dashboard. Work on a page while keeping your links visible.
With split view open, you can drag links directly from the dashboard into the other panel — or from the other panel back into the dashboard.
Links can be dragged across multiple Chrome windows. Grab a link from LinkLife in one window and drop it into another Chrome window to open it there.
While dragging a link, hover over any Chrome tab — Chrome will switch to that tab after a brief pause. Then drop the link wherever you need it. This lets you navigate to the right destination without letting go.
Inside LinkLife itself, links can be dragged between tiles in the interface — rearrange and reorganize your links by simply dragging them from one tile to another.
LinkLife makes zero network calls for your personal data. Nothing you type is ever sent anywhere.
- All your links, tiles, and settings are stored in your browser's localStorage — private to your device and browser profile.
- You can export your data at any time as a plain JSON file.
- You can store that file anywhere you like: OneDrive, Google Drive, iCloud, a USB drive, a folder on your desktop — your choice.
- You can import that file back on any device to restore or migrate your dashboard.

| Action | How |
|---|---|
| Manual export | Click ⚙ → Eksporter — downloads a timestamped .json file |
| Set a backup folder | Click ⚙ → Eksportmappe… — pick a folder (Chrome/Edge) |
| Auto-backup | Enable the checkbox after choosing a folder — saves automatically after each edit |
| Import / restore | Click ⚙ → Importer — pick any previously exported .json file |
| Reset to defaults | Click ⚙ → Nullstill — triple-confirmed, non-reversible |
Two files are written on every export:
- A timestamped file (
...-2026-05-10-...json) for history - A stable file (
...-siste.json) always containing your latest state
Want your data to survive even if the browser is wiped or the device is lost? Set the export folder to a OneDrive, Google Drive, or any other cloud-synced folder on your machine. With auto-backup enabled, every change you make is automatically saved to that folder — which means your cloud provider syncs it for you, silently, in the background. True backup, zero effort.

Because LinkLife is a single, self-contained HTML file with no minification or obfuscation, anyone can modify the entire design using an AI assistant — even without coding knowledge.
Copy index.html, paste it into any AI, and just talk to it:
- "Make the background a warm dark grey instead of pure black"
- "Change the layout to three columns on desktop"
- "Translate the entire UI to Spanish"
- "Add a new tile type for countdown timers"
- "Make the fonts bigger and change to a serif typeface"
The AI gives you back a modified index.html. Save it, open it in your browser — done. Your new design, instantly.
This only works because it's one file. No build tools, no dependencies, no config. Copy, paste, talk, save. That's the entire workflow.
You can also modify your link data the same way. Export your dashboard (⚙ → Eksporter), paste the JSON into an AI, and ask it to:
- Add, remove, or reorganize links and tiles
- Generate an entire data file from scratch based on your description
- Batch-rename or re-categorize everything
Then import the result (⚙ → Importer).
| Type | Description |

Firefox and Safari users can still export and import manually — the folder auto-backup feature requires the File System Access API, which is only available in Chromium-based browsers.
LinkLife is AI Epoque's first open source project and we're open to collaboration.
Want to change something? Go for it. Fork the repo, make your own branch, start your own version — whatever works for you. We're open to any kind of contribution: design changes, new features, translations, accessibility, wild experiments, anything.
Ways to get involved:
- Fork it — make your own version with your own design choices
- Open a pull request — suggest changes back to this repo
- Start a discussion — open an issue with ideas, questions, or just to say hi
This is new territory for us too, so we'll figure things out together as the community grows.
This is open source for the people. Use it, change it, make it yours.
If you want to suggest a change back to this project, here's the practical workflow:
- Fork this repo — click the "Fork" button on GitHub to get your own copy
- Clone your fork to your machine (
git clone https://github.com/your-username/LinkLife.git) - Create a branch for your change (
git checkout -b my-change) - Make your edits — change
index.html, update the README, whatever you have in mind - Commit and push to your fork (
git add . && git commit -m "describe what you did" && git push origin my-change) - Open a Pull Request — go to your fork on GitHub, click "Compare & pull request", and describe what you changed and why
That's it. We'll review it, discuss if needed, and merge if it fits. No special permissions required — anyone can do this on any public repo.
This exact repo will always stay a single-file project — that's the whole point, and that's what keeps it simple and accessible for everyone. If there's ever room and need for something bigger, we'll branch into a separate project. But here, one file is the promise.
LinkLife is open source software, shared freely as a contribution to the community. The owner uses it daily — it works. But this is provided as-is, with no warranties and no guarantees. You download it, you use it, you take full responsibility. We accept no liability for how you use this tool, any data loss, or any issues that may arise. Use at your own risk.
