Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

How should self-hosters configure households and accounts?

Do self-hosted users report account verification or subscription problems?

One self-hosted user reported not receiving the account verification email and being denied when trying to link a free-trial subscription.

Is there a Python client for the Homechart API?

Yes, there is a Homechart Python library that is generated from the Homechart server API schema.
