    Own the glass. A dashboard, privacy controls and Home Assistant bridge for rooted LG webOS TVs.

    Glasshouse is a server that runs directly on a rooted LG webOS TV, providing both a live browser dashboard and a dashboard app.

    Use it for remote control, app installation and removal, OLED panel care, privacy controls, service menu access, and hardware telemetry. It also includes an MQTT bridge for integrating the TV with Home Assistant and other smart-home software.

    Read the documentation for the features, installation, Home Assistant and security.

    That's it. The dashboard is ready to use.
