Looking for testers: a read-only dashboard for Railway, Coolify and VPS servers

Hi, I'm Cornel. I'm building Opyntel, and I'm looking for a few people to try it and tell me what's missing. The problem: if your stuff lives across Railway, Coolify and a VPS or two, you end up with three tabs and no single answer to "is everything okay right now?" What it does today: One dashboard with a status per service: ok, degraded, deploying, down or stopped Deploy, restart and crash…

Cornel is seeking individuals to test a new read-only dashboard called Opyntel. The purpose of this tool is to provide a consolidated view of the status of services running across various platforms such as Railway, Coolify, and individual VPS servers.

The dashboard presents a status for each service, which can be one of several indicators like "ok", "degraded", "deploying", "down", or "stopped". It also displays a timeline of deploy, restart, and crash events. Users can view key metrics including CPU, memory, disk, and network usage. There is also a cost estimator, and the ability to set up alerts via Slack, email, or SMS.

The dashboard is intentionally read-only, meaning it can observe the setup of a user's services but cannot make any changes. It does not include log search capabilities. The project is currently only available by application through a waitlist. Interested testers are asked to fill out a form at https://opyntel.com, let the developer know they found the tool on dev.to, and provide details about the services they use and the types of alerts they are interested in.

Cornel promises to read every response and welcome both constructive feedback and direct questions in the comments section.

The Mystery of the Infinite Loop

There is something strangely beautiful about a loop. You start somewhere. You do something. You arrive at the end. And somehow, the end takes you back to the beginning.

  • An infinite loop occurs when code runs continuously without stopping.
  • Loops are intentional and found in everyday life and programming.
  • Infinite loops can be bugs or intentional, depending on the context.
