Is it possible to have parts of Luci (read-only parts) to be public, ie. not require authentication?
Mostly what I have in mind are /cgi-bin/luci/admin/status/realtime and perhaps /cgi-bin/luci/admin/status/overview
No.

Well, yes - kind of, but that would depend on your development abilities. Luci is slowly moving from global access to finer grained ACL based authorization, which would offer a basis for things like this - but there are no 'checkboxes' to export certain pages to unauthorized users, you'd have to write those pages yourself.

I haven't seen Luci code - but I do have some programming experience (in js, python, some rust and erlang).
Where do I look?
At luci's source code, and lua, js and html+css.
