All data is encrypted before being sent to the backend. In Dashy, this is done in [`CloudBackup.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/src/utils/CloudBackup.js), using [crypto.js](https://github.com/brix/crypto-js)'s AES method, using the users chosen password as the key. The data is then sent to a [Cloudflare worker](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/learning/how-workers-works) (a platform for running serverless functions), and stored in a [KV](https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/learning/how-kv-works) data store.

## Web Server Configuration
_The following section only applies if you are not using Docker, and would like to use your own web server_
Dashy ships with a pre-configured Node.js server, in [`server.js`](https://github.com/Lissy93/dashy/blob/master/server.js) which serves up the contents of the `./dist` directory on a given port. You can start the server by running `node server`. Note that the app must have been build (run `yarn build`), and you need [Node.js](https://nodejs.org) installed.
However, since Dashy is just a static web application, it can be served with whatever server you like. The following section outlines how you can configure a web server.
### NGINX
Create a new file in `/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/dashy`
```
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
root /var/www/dashy/html;
index index.html;
server_name your-domain.com www.your-domain.com;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
}
```
Then upload the build contents of Dashy's dist directory to that location.
For example: `scp -r ./dist/* [username]@[server_ip]:/var/www/dashy/html`
### Apache
Copy Dashy's dist folder to your apache server, `sudo cp -r ./dashy/dist /var/www/html/dashy`.
In your Apache config, `/etc/apche2/apache2.conf` add:
```
<Directory /var/www/html>
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All
Require all granted
</Directory>
```
Add a `.htaccess` file within `/var/www/html/dashy/.htaccess`, and add:
```
Options -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.html [QSA,L]
```
Then restart Apache, with `sudo systemctl restart apache2`
### cPanel
1. Login to your WHM
2. Open 'Feature Manager' on the left sidebar
3. Under 'Manage feature list', click 'Edit'
4. Find 'Application manager' in the list, enable it and hit 'Save'
5. Log into your users cPanel account, and under 'Software' find 'Application Manager'
6. Click 'Register Application', fill in the form using the path that Dashy is located, and choose a domain, and hit 'Save'
7. The application should now show up in the list, click 'Ensure dependencies', and move the toggle switch to 'Enabled'
8. If you need to change the port, click 'Add environmental variable', give it the name 'PORT', choose a port number and press 'Save'.
9. Dashy should now be running at your selected path an on a given port

### Keyboard Shortcuts
Many people find using the keyboard significantly more efficient than having to reach for the mouse. And so Dashy has a series of keybindings and shortcuts to enable you to navigate through items quickly.
Once you've searched for a given item, you can then tab through the list (or Shift + Tab to go backwards) until you've found the item you're looking for. You can also use the arrow keys to navigate up, down, left and right through the grid. To launch an item, just hit enter. You can also open an item in a new tab with Ctrl + Enter, or open the item in a pop-up modal with Alt + Enter. To close an open popup item, or any open menus, just hit Esc.

### Theme Switching
You can change the current theme using the dropdown menu in the upper-right-hand quadrant. Your selected theme will be stored in local storage, and applied next time you load the page. For more information on customizing the look and feel of Dashy, see [Themeing Docs](/docs/theming.md)

### Icons
Both sections and items can have an icon associated with them. There are several options for specifying icons. You can let the icon be automatically resolved and fetched from the items associated URL, by just setting the icon to `favicon`. You can use a font-awesome icon, by specifying it's name and category. Or you can pass in a URL, either to a locally hosted or remote image. For local images, you can put them in `./public/item-icons/` and then reference them just by the file name.

### Metadata
Basic site information, displayed in the header and footer can be set from the UI. This includes: title, sub-title, footer text, and nav-bar links. Click the wrench icon in the upper-right corner, then go to the Site Metadata tab. Fill in your new data, and hit save. The page will be refreshed, and your changes will appear. These settings are stored under `pageInfo` in the config, and if set through the UI, will only be applied locally.

### Editing Config
The config file can be edited from the UI, but take note that changes are only applied locally. You will need to either export this data into your conf.yml, or use the cloud backup and sync feature.
To make changes to the config file, click the wrench icon in the upper-left hand corner. Then go to the Config tab. Here you'll find a JSON editor. You can switch from tree mode to plain-text mode if you find that easier. And parsing or validation issues will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

### Managing Config Data
You can download, backup or reset local config data directly from the UI. To apply config to Dashy on other devices, you will need to either download the config file, or use the cloud backup and sync feature. To download config, click the Wrench icon, in the upper-right hand corner, and then go to Download. Similarly, for cloud backup, click the Cloud icon in the upper right corner, and fill in the required fields. For detailed instructions, and technical information about backup and sync, please see the [Cloud Backup Documentation](/docs/backup-restore.md). You can also Reset all local settings from the config menu. This will not effect any data saved in your systems `conf.yml` file.
