Self-hosted, open-source status pages for your applications and services.
Farol is an open-source status page software that lets you create monitors and host a public status page on your own server.
It is built for teams, solo developers, and organizations that want a simple and transparent way to communicate the health of their applications without depending on a closed external status-page provider.
With Farol, you can track your services, expose their current availability, and give users a clear place to check whether everything is operational.
Farol is designed around a straightforward workflow:
- Create monitors for the applications, APIs, websites, or services you want to track.
- Run Farol on your own infrastructure.
- Publish a status page that reflects the current state of your monitored services.
- Keep users informed with a single, reliable source of truth.
The goal is to make service health visible, self-hosted, and easy to maintain.
- Open source: inspect, modify, and contribute to the project.
- Self-hosted: keep control over where your status page runs.
- Transparent: give users a clear view of your application status.
- Simple by design: focus on monitors, availability, and communication.
Farol is currently in early development. The README will evolve as installation instructions, configuration options, and contribution guidelines are added to the project.
Farol is released under the license included in this repository.
