The idea is to host it either locally or remotely so it can be used with the `FF-Container-HomePages` addon, because local files are no longer supported as the homepage for new tabs in Firefox due to security reasons. Home Page can be used as a regular Firefox homepage, however; you can access it at any time by using the keybind Alt+Home key.
Other than that, the `arkenfox-user.js` script and the addon `libredirect` are paired together for better privacy. Because the script in question enables letterboxing, the styling of the page was designed with that in mind, and using it without it may lead to certain consistency issues in how the elements are laid out; also, the main search bar uses the aforementioned addon by default to search using various instances of LibreX (provided you have it installed and configured to do so before hand), but this can be changed by modifying `start.html`.

## Support
Since this is a personal project, don't expect much support; this is provided as is. That said, I'll do what I can to assist you if it's within reason.

* Images not displaying properly: this issue will likely occur when failing to adjust `start.html` for the new paths that you will be using. Because this is a personal project, and something that I will need to clone in other computers, I've left my desired paths intact; you should change them to the ones you need.
* But they still don't show: If images are not coming up even when the paths are correct, then you're likely facing a permissions issue. Please refer to the Installation section and run the required commands listed there.
* The search bar is not working: As I mentioned in the Configuration step, you need to install and configure the `libredirect` addon to make it work with LibreX or, alternatively, edit `start.html` to add the search engine of your choice.

* When I click on qbittorrent-nox from Home Page, I get an error message: This can be bypassed by going into the settings page of qbittorrent-nox, then the webui section, and disabling CSRF. **Warning: this is not advisable if you host it remotely.**
