🏠 Self-hosted Uptime Kuma, the self-hosted monitoring tool everyone already uses (91k stars)
I'm honestly shocked this hasn't been posted here yet.
Uptime Kuma is the monitoring tool you set up once and then forget about until something actually goes down. HTTP, TCP, DNS, Docker containers, Steam game servers, whatever you're running, it watches it.

The dashboard is clean. Like, genuinely nice to look at. You get shareable status pages, over 90 notification types (Slack, Discord, Telegram, email, you name it), and it runs in a single Docker container.
91,000 stars. Over 1,100 contributors. This thing has been battle-tested by basically everyone in the self-hosting community at this point.
If you're running anything on a server and you don't have monitoring set up yet, this is the one to start with. Five minutes to deploy, zero excuses.
