ServerKit delivers a server control panel that fits on a small VPS while managing everything from Docker containers to mail servers. The Python/Flask backend exposes 1,519 REST endpoints across 107 blueprints with full OpenAPI documentation at /api/v1/docs, while the React frontend spans 65 screens in a 1.75MB gzipped bundle served entirely from your own infrastructure. Docker management includes full container lifecycle control, Docker Compose project orchestration, real-time log streaming, and terminal access. Database panels cover MySQL/MariaDB and PostgreSQL with user management, browser-based query consoles, and automated backups to S3, Backblaze B2, or local storage. Nginx virtual host management automates Let's Encrypt certificate provisioning with hardened TLS 1.2+ configurations and Cloudflare-aware setups. The Go-based cross-platform agent enables multi-server fleet management with HMAC-SHA256 authentication over a WebSocket gateway, supporting Linux, Windows, and macOS across amd64 and ARM64 architectures. Fleet monitoring provides cross-server heatmaps, metric comparison charts, alert thresholds, anomaly detection, and capacity forecasting. A built-in marketplace distributes 106 one-click application templates using a declarative YAML schema with Docker Compose stacks. The extension system allows community plugins for Kubernetes management, Redis browsers, and WordPress site orchestration. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.

Cockpit puts Linux server administration in a web browser, rendering storage, networking, containers, and virtual machines as visual panels you click through instead of command-line syntax you memorize. It ships in every major Linux distribution and activates through systemd socket activation, consuming zero resources until someone connects on port 9090. What makes it different from other admin panels: every change through the web interface appears instantly at the command line, and every terminal change reflects in the browser in real time. No abstraction layer sits between the UI and the operating system, which means no configuration drift. Storage management covers disk partitioning, RAID arrays, LUKS encryption, LVM volumes, and NFS shares. Network configuration handles bonds, bridges, VLANs, and firewall zones through visual editors. Native Podman integration pulls images, creates containers, manages pods, and provides terminal access into running processes. KVM/libvirt support handles VM creation, cloning, snapshots, and live migration with console access. A built-in terminal provides shell access when the web interface is not enough, and the journal viewer filters systemd logs by severity and unit. Multi-server management connects additional hosts over SSH, presenting a unified dashboard across your entire infrastructure from one browser tab. Runs on a dedicated RepoCloud VPS with full root SSH access and browser serial console. LGPL licensed.

Backed by over 36,000 GitHub stars and 120 contributors with 123 releases since 2022, 1Panel has rapidly become the go-to open-source alternative to cPanel and Plesk for modern Linux server management. The platform delivers a clean Vue.js dashboard powered by a Go backend using the Gin framework, providing visual management of Docker containers, images, networks, and volumes without touching the command line. Its curated app marketplace offers one-click installation of 165+ trusted open-source applications including Nextcloud, Bitwarden, Umami analytics, WordPress, and NocoBase, each running in isolated containers for maximum security. Native AI capabilities set 1Panel apart from every competing panel: deploy Ollama LLMs directly from the dashboard, spin up OpenClaw personal agents, monitor GPU utilization, and manage AI models through a unified interface. Website management includes automatic domain binding, Let's Encrypt SSL certificate provisioning, and Nginx configuration with zero manual setup. Security runs deep with built-in firewall rules, fail2ban integration, container isolation, WAF protection, and comprehensive audit logging enabled from day one. Automated backups support AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, and local storage with one-click restore from any snapshot. The panel supports Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, and Rocky Linux across x86_64, aarch64, armv7l, ppc64le, and s390x architectures. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.

One 18 MB Go binary does the job of Apache, Nginx, Varnish, Caddy, and cPanel combined. Point UWAS at your /var/www directory and it auto-detects sites, provisions Let's Encrypt certificates, enables HTTP/3 via QUIC, and activates a two-tier caching engine with L1 memory shards and L2 disk storage, all before you write a single line of configuration. The React 19 admin dashboard provides 42 management pages for domains, PHP versions, databases, cron jobs, DNS records, file management, backup and restore, SFTP users, and uptime monitoring with real-time SSE updates. PHP sites run through FastCGI with connection pooling and full .htaccess compatibility, so WordPress, Laravel, and legacy applications work without migration effort. The built-in WAF catches SQL injection, XSS, path traversal, and shell exploits, while per-domain rate limiting and bandwidth caps protect against abuse. Reverse proxy mode supports five load balancing algorithms, circuit breakers, canary deployments, and mirroring for blue-green rollouts. Git deploy clones your repository, runs the build, checks health, and restarts the service with rollback on failure. An MCP server lets AI agents manage domains, cache, and deployments through natural language. The Nginx and Apache migration CLI converts existing configurations to UWAS format automatically.
