Janch

Do you find it difficult to keep track of all the potential issues that could affect your software product? It's easy to get overwhelmed by the sheer number of things that could go wrong, from web service outages to low disk space and excessive error logging.

Janch is a powerful yet lightweight tool that can help you monitor your software product and ensure that everything is running smoothly. With just a few entries in a YAML file, you can set up your targets and let the tool do the rest. It reads and interprets the YAML file, giving you a clear and concise status report on all your targets.
