Welcome to your Pi-Kit
Great news — you’re already on your Pi-Kit and it’s responding.
Everything stays on your local network. Let’s move you to the secure (HTTPS) dashboard so you can manage Pi-Kit safely.
Local-only traffic
Works for Pi-Kit & DietPi dashboards
HTTPS ready once trusted
Why switch to HTTPS?
- Encrypts traffic on your LAN so no one can snoop your Pi-Kit or DietPi dashboards.
- Stops mixed-content / “not secure” browser warnings.
- Needed for some browser features (clipboard, notifications, service workers).
If you see a warning
- Brave/Chrome: click Advanced → Proceed.
- Firefox: click Advanced → Accept the Risk & Continue.
This warning is expected the first time. It’s safe for your own Pi on your own network.
Install the Pi-Kit CA (recommended, one-time)
This removes future warnings for both Pi-Kit and DietPi dashboards.

Linux (Debian/Ubuntu)
curl -s http://pikit.local/assets/pikit-ca.crt -o /tmp/pikit-ca.crt && sudo cp /tmp/pikit-ca.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/pikit-ca.crt && sudo update-ca-certificates
