> Dashy's built-in auth is not indented to protect a publicly hosted instance against unauthorized access. Instead you should use an auth provider compatible with your reverse proxy, or access Dashy via your VPN.

> In cases where Dashy is only accessibly within your home network, and you just want to add a login page, then the built-in auth may be sufficient, but keep in mind that configuration can still be accessed.
## Built-In Auth
Dashy has a basic login page included, and frontend authentication. You can enable this by adding users to the `auth` section under `appConfig` in your `conf.yml`. If this section is not specified, then no authentication will be required to access the app, and the homepage will resolve to your dashboard.
