Eleven app configs declared CFG_<APP>_AUTH_PROFILE as a "capability tier for the WebUI auth tools". Nothing read it — not a shell script, not the frontend, and it was never emitted into apps.json, so the WebUI could not have acted on it even in principle. The job it was meant to do is already done, and done better: authAdapterCanDo tests `declare -F authAdapter_<app>_<method>`, so what an app can do is derived from the functions it actually implements. A declared tier is a second source of truth that can only drift — traefik declared single_password while its adapter implements setPassword only, and linkding declared nothing at all while shipping a full multi-user adapter, and neither mismatch had any effect. Removed the key and its comment from all eleven configs, and replaced the stale contract note in auth_adapter.sh with what the dispatcher really does.

LibrePortal
Your own private corner of the internet — free, open, and yours.
LibrePortal is a self-hosted platform for running the apps you rely on, on your own server: one-click installs, a reverse proxy with automatic SSL, rootless Docker, optional VPN routing, and a clean web dashboard to manage it all.
⚠️ v0.1.0 — early days. Expect rough edges while things settle.
Why LibrePortal
Too many services today treat your data as theirs to take — quietly overstepping boundaries that should never have been crossed. LibrePortal grew out of frustration with that: it's a way to run the apps you depend on on your own server, where your data stays yours. Privacy here isn't a feature to toggle — it's the whole point.
Free & open — forever
The entire platform is free software under the GNU AGPLv3. Self-host it and you get everything — every feature, no paywalls, no telemetry. See our Promise for exactly what that means.
What you get
- 📦 One-click self-hosted apps (Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, Jellyfin, Gitea, …)
- 🔀 Traefik reverse proxy + automatic Let's Encrypt SSL
- 🔒 Rootless Docker, CrowdSec, sane security defaults
- 🛡️ Optional VPN routing (gluetun) for any app
- 🖥️ A web dashboard to install, configure, back up, and monitor everything
Quick start
curl -fsSL https://get.libreportal.org/install.sh | sudo bash
This installs a versioned, checksum-verified release (Debian/Ubuntu, root). Put
data on separate disks with --system-dir= / --containers-dir= / --backups-dir=.
The
get.libreportal.orghost is still being set up — until it's live, build a release and install from it locally (see the docs below).
Documentation
- docs/guide/install-and-use.md — install, place data on separate disks/drives, update, back up, uninstall.
- docs/contributing/development.md — run a dev copy, cut stable/edge releases, and test them before publishing.
LibrePortal Connect (optional)
Self-hosting is free and complete. If you'd rather not fiddle with the tricky parts — like reaching your server from your phone, or keeping off-site backups — LibrePortal Connect will handle them for you. Here's the catch that makes us different: we work like a courier carrying a sealed box. We move your data between your devices and store backup copies, but it stays locked and you hold the only key — we can't open it, and we never run your apps for you. Everything we offer, you can also set up yourself for free. Our Promise spells out exactly where that line sits.
Contributing
PRs welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md. We use a lightweight
DCO sign-off (git commit -s), no CLA.
Acknowledgments
LibrePortal has been built from scratch since 2023. Its spark of inspiration
was a small installer script from Brian McGonagill (OpenSourceIsAwesome):
gitlab.com/bmcgonag/docker_installs.
From that seed it grew start to finish — refined, extended, and refactored
into the platform it is today.
