Fits on a Raspberry Pi
One file, no agent, collector or stack: it reads /proc and
/sys directly. Light enough for a Pi Zero, small by design.
Custom Alerts
Set a threshold and forget it. When it trips, it hits a webhook or runs a command, with a built-in cooldown.
Web dashboard
A canvas UI embedded in the binary, backed by an internal database, no external store. Open in any browser.

When not to use it
minimoni is designed to serve a single host's metrics over time, reachable from any browser.
For anything else, reach for the right tool:
- Many hosts, PromQL alerting, or multi-source dashboards: Prometheus (Apache-2.0) + Grafana (AGPL-3.0).
- Thousands of auto-detected metrics, ML anomaly detection, full-stack integrations: Netdata (GPLv3+ / NCUL1).
- A cross-platform top/htop alternative: Glances (LGPL-3.0).
- A lightweight hub for several servers, with Docker stats: Beszel (MIT).
