A week ago I started building Bifrost - a lightweight observability tool for small setups.
Today the MVP is working.
What it does:
→ Add multiple agents (one per server/VPS)
→ See real-time status and resource usage
→ View container logs organized by compose services
→ Basic RBAC (admin/viewer roles)
It's completely headless. Run the agent on any system you want to monitor. That's it.
No complex setup.
No multiple dashboards.
Just one clean UI for everything.
The logs view is basic right now but it works. I can see what's running, where resources are going, and debug issues without jumping between tools.
This is exactly what I needed for my Docker apps on VPS.
Next up: improving the logs UI and adding alerts.
If you're running small setups and tired of over-engineered monitoring tools, this might be useful.
Recorded a quick demo to show how it works. Check it out 👇
