Macrohat Home Grid
The Enterprise-style app grid for Odoo Community, at a clean /odoo with keyboard search.
Odoo Community has no home screen. After login the web client simply opens the first app the user can reach. Enterprise gives its users a home menu: a grid of every app, under the company's logo.
This module reproduces that home menu on Community, at a bare /odoo address with no action suffix and no breadcrumb. Users land on it at login, the top-left apps button returns to it, and typing searches apps and their menus through Odoo's own command palette.
The grid is built from the menu service each time it is shown, so it respects access rights and picks up newly installed apps with no configuration. It uses Community components only and depends on nothing beyond Odoo's web client.
- A home screen at login
- Users arrive on a grid of every app they can open, instead of being dropped into whichever app happens to come first.
- A clean address
- The grid lives at a bare /odoo, with no action number in the URL and no breadcrumb, the same as Enterprise.
- Search that reaches menus
- Typing opens Odoo's own command palette in its menus namespace, so it finds apps and the menu items inside them, not just tile names.
- Keyboard first
- The search box takes focus as the grid opens, and the arrow keys move between tiles.
- Always current
- Tiles come from Odoo's menu service when the grid is drawn, so access rights are respected and a newly installed app appears without configuration.
- Branded per database
- The header shows the current company's logo, and the accent colour follows the theme, so each database looks like its own.

Does it work on Enterprise?
No, and it should not be installed there. Enterprise ships its own home menu, which this module reproduces. Uninstall it when a database moves to Enterprise; you lose nothing.
Does it need the Website app?
No. It depends on the web client only. If Website is installed, its apps button for internal users also goes to the grid; without Website nothing extra is needed.
