esbuild: An extremely fast JavaScript bundler
Website | Getting started | API | Demo

Vince is a self hosted alternative to Google Analytics.

Features

  • Automatic TLS native support for Let's Encrypt.
  • Drop in replacement for Plausible Analytics you can use existing Plausible scripts and just point them to the vince instance (note that vince is lean and only covers features for a single entity self hosting, so it is not our goal to be feature parity with Plausible).
  • Outbound links tracking
  • File download tracking
  • 404 page tracking
  • Custom event tracking
  • Time period comparison
  • Public dashboards allow access to the dashboard to anyone (by default all dashboards are private).
  • Unique shared access generate unique links to dashboards that can be password protected.
  • Zero Dependency: Ships a single binary with everything in it. No runtime dependency.
  • Easy to operate: One line command line flags with env variables is all you need.
  • Unlimited sites: There is no limit on how many sites you can manage.
  • Unlimited events: scale according to available resources.
  • Privacy friendly: No cookies and fully compliant with GDPR, CCPA and PECR.
