Is there a way to access the HA frontend on the same machine that runs HAOS?

Installation

Hey everyone,
I am installing HA to my old laptop, which is a nice old folding thinkpad Yoga.
I was wondering if there was a way to launch a browser from the HA cli and see the dashboards on the same machine?
And perhaps use the touchscreen too.
Is this at all possible?
Thank you

Short answer : no

Long answer : install a linux distribution of your choice ,
and either

  • install HA OS in a VM, and run the browser from outside the VM
  • install HA in docker
  • install HA in a venv (but that is for very advanced python users)

Thanks! So with HAOS as base OS on the machine there is no way to do it right?

No, HA OS does not have a GUI, so no browser
