Fireflies flash in unison. Nobody conducts.
Decentralized mesh monitoring for servers. Every node watches. No node is in charge.

Click any light to take that server down. The mesh keeps flashing.
- Mesh
- Every server watches every other server. There is no central collector to lose, and no dashboard host you have to keep alive in order to find out that something died.
- Gossip
- Nodes tell their neighbours what they see, and those neighbours tell theirs. State crosses the whole mesh in seconds without anyone coordinating it.
- Quorum
- An alert fires when the mesh agrees, not when one machine has an opinion. A single node losing sight of a host is data. Half of them losing sight of it is an outage.

There is nothing to download and nothing to sign up for. If you run servers and this sounds like something you want, write to me and tell me what breaks in your current setup. That is what I am building against.
