OpsiMate – From on-call chaos to a single control panel
A couple of us started building an open-source tool after an on-call shift where a simple container restart turned into more hassle than it should. What should have been a 10-second task meant opening a laptop, connecting to a server, and running commands in the middle of the night. OpsiMate is our attempt to simplify that. It provides a single place to manage Docker containers, Kubernetes pods, and systemd services. We’re also working on integrations with monitoring tools so you can act on alerts and jump directly to dashboards. It’s still early and a bit rough, but already running in use.…
OpsiMate – From on-call chaos to a single control panel launched on September 5, 2025 with 10 votes, #1,170 of 8,160 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.
In plain words
OpsiMate is an open-source tool that centralizes management of Docker containers, Kubernetes pods, and systemd services from a single control panel. Built for on-call engineers and infrastructure teams, it reduces the friction of performing routine operational tasks remotely. The tool is in early stages but already in active use, with planned integrations for monitoring tools to enable direct action on alerts and dashboard access.

I built an open-source tool to make on-call suck less2024 · github.com · ▲319Hey HN, I am building an open source platform to make on-call better and less stressful for engineers. We are building a tool that can silence alerts and help with debugging and root cause analysis. We also want to automate tedious parts of being on-call (running runbooks manually, answering questions on Slack, dealing with Pagerduty). Here is a quick video of how it works: https://youtu.be/m_K9Dq1kZDw I hated being on-call for a couple of reasons: * Alert volume: The number of alerts kept increasing over time. It was hard to maintain existing alerts. This would lead to a lot…
superlogJun 2026 · superlog.sh · ▲497Hey HN, we’re Nico and Arseniy, co-founders of Superlog (https://superlog.sh). We're building a self-installing, self healing observability tool meant not to be opened. It has a wizard that daily sets up proper logging and an agent that investigates errors and opens PRs. Super short demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFhU9Mk247M. In our earlier startups, we tried Sentry, Datadog, Grafana, Dash0, and nothing was good enough. Proper telemetry and alerting still requires a ton of manual setup. We struggled with adding good logs, so debugging was tough, especially as…
Keep – Open-source alerting CLI2023 · github.com · ▲65Hi Hacker News! Shahar and Tal from Keep here. We're thrilled to announce that we're open-sourcing our alerting CLI tool, Keep (https://github.com/keephq/keep). Designed by developers for developers, Keep streamlines and simplifies alerting, making it a first-class citizen within the development process. Think of Keep as Prometheus Alertmanager but for all observability tools, with a simple and intuitive (GitHub actions-like) syntax. We believe that alerting has historically been neglected in existing monitoring platforms, leading to subpar alerting practices. With Keep,…
OpsFlow – Low-code DevOps – Webflow for infrastructure2022 · opsflow.app · ▲71Opsflow cofounder here! We launched a bunch of things recently, some of them well received (Terragen, AWS Bootstrap). It's no secret that AWS is hard, and our mission is to make it simple. What HN crowd helped us realise is that the UI was still not simple enough. Rather confusing in fact. So in the last couple weeks we have radically simplified it based on your feedback. We have removed the unnecessarily complex concepts like Services and Environments - it's just Apps now. All options are now on the new Settings screen. Instead of Infrastructure and Software deployments there is now a…
Open-source console for cloud operations2023 · github.com · ▲10Ops Console is an open-source console for cloud operations that delivers a dashboard and workflow engine so developers can organize resources in sensible ways, view key service metadata in one place and automate cloud workflows. With a low-code, widget-based approach, developers can design custom dashboards and workflows and even build their own custom widgets.

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

I made a built-from scratch Wayland Compositor to display any GUI app* in the terminal! I think there is a lot of unexplored potential in custom Wayland compositors, a lot of really cool things you can embed existing applications into! So, I started with embedding apps into the terminal because that is the easiest input/output (output is just utf-8 and I use the great `chafa` library for that, and I just read from stdin for the input). If you have any other ideas for cool Wayland compositors, let me know. I purposedly wrote 80% the app in Typescript to appeal to the most developers and…

Years ago I stumbled across a basic version of this concept and it stuck with me. I knew if I was ever going to take on such a project, it would need to be flawless, but without coding experience it was just another idea that would never happen. By the end of 2024, as AI coding tools exploded everywhere, I finally had a way to make it real. I started from zero knowledge and spent months collaborating with AI agents as a learning experience. Every pixel and every function went through me. The AI translated what I asked for into code, but every decision was human. I didn't use existing OS…
