Hi, it’s up now. I made some updates and ran a few tests earlier


Thank you for the suggestion!


It generates a simple, responsive static HTML page for those of you running self-hosted services and wanting to share their status page. It checks things like HTTP pages, open ports, or pings IP addresses.

Check the demo here: https://status.harry.id


> clean, responsive web page

Consider adding a screenshot.


I was also looking for a screenshot in the readme. I somehow missed the link to the demo until it was posted at the top of this thread.

Neat project. Thank you for sharing.


Why he need screenshot when there's a perfectly good demo?


Assuming this isn't snark - because if I am looking for a tool to do a job, seeing an immediate visual representation of what I am likely to expect is very helpful. I don't want to go through the full installation to view a demo and then immediately realise it was not remotely close to what I was expecting.


I also think a screenshot in a README is very helpful, but do note that the demo requires no install. The linked GitHub repository has a homepage set, and it is https://status.harry.id which I think is pretty obviously a demo just from the URL.


Generally I'd agree, but the link he posted is a single click, requires no install, no login, no nothing. Nevertheless, here I took a screenshot for you: https://i.imgur.com/63kPIh9.png


The demo link is not in the README either. If it was, yes, I agree with you.


I thought it was.

Good news, OP is responsive and added both the link and a screenshot: https://github.com/harsxv/tinystatus/commit/41d9004b391cf76f...

I know, he said so in this very thread 2 days ago.


It's the homepage link on the GitHub repo.


Thanks!

Screenshot added.


It follows the UNIX philosophy: do one thing well. Nice work!
