Looking for a simple web app that has a system monitoring feature on read-only for Linux

Hello! I'm back again, with a new things to share.

For the past week, I'm looking for a simple web app that has this system monitoring (CPU Usage, Memory, Disk, etc.) feature on read-only for Linux.

I found one Webmin, it has a cool dashboard though! The thing is, you need to be careful using this tool since it will expose a lot of things on the server or machine that you installed it on.

Here are the reasons why I'm not inclined to use Webmin on the servers that I'm working on:

Yes, there are many ways to make it as secured though, I'm still in doubt with it because even you delete the root user that has access for everything, it will still have these features that modify the server since all I want is a dashboard for system monitoring.
The dashboard for the system monitoring is only available for that server, meaning if you have cluster of servers you'll need to check it one by one to get the info you want.

That being said, I came up with this thing named TailStat. The current goal features for this right now are:

Super lightweight dashboard for system monitoring
Fully read-only access
To support multiple server monitoring (WIP)

I'm hoping that this will also help others who have been searching for the same features that I have mention.

This is open for any contribution and I prepared some straight forward instruction how to get started with it, though I know it is not that thorough that it should be.

Thanks for reading this one.

Happy crafting 😄!

The Github Contribution Stats

Hello, World!

I just want to share this project about how you can dynamically generate a template of your Github contribution stats based on the Commits, Pull Requests, Issues and Code Reviews.

Sample generated template (some of our famous open source contributor 🏆):
- Miško Hevery
- Taylor Otwell
- Fabien Potencier

The ratings scale are based on this Academic Grading In Japan I was fascinated with that ("S" rarely given 😂) and also we used some of the common formula in Statistic like (Mean, SD, Z-Score, etc.) to get the final scores based on the 4 data sets (Commits, Pull Requests, Issues and Code Reviews). If you want check the technical details of it you can visit this file ContributionRatings.js

Usage

Just copy paste this into your markdown content and replace the value of the ?username= URL parameter based on your Github Username.

[![Contribution Stats](https://github-contribution-stats.vercel.app/api/?username=lorddashme)](https://github.com/LordDashMe/github-contribution-stats/)

Probably you will notice that the generated template has a message below the stats, we added this feature in order to preserve the origin of the project. If you want to remove this just make sure you give a star in the project and after a couple of minutes this will disappear, we need this minutes because we implemented a caching for each generated template.

Purpose

Actually if you don't know Github released a feature Github README profile (they say a Secret Repository 😄). You can check this article on how it works How to add GitHub Profile README (new feature). And I think this project will give you additional content to include or show for your Github README Profile.

Contribute

Yes! the project is open for any idea or suggestion just visit the repository Github Contribution Stats and don't forget to star the repository 😊 that will help a lot!
