Empower Monitor 💎

High-Performance Rails 8 Uptime Monitor

Empower Monitor 💎

Overview

A lightweight, high-performance uptime monitoring application built with the latest Ruby on Rails 8 stack. It features a custom Glassmorphism design system and production-ready infrastructure using Solid Cache and Solid Queue for database-backed background jobs.

1The Challenge

Existing uptime monitors are often bloated, expensive, or lack a premium aesthetic. Developers need a simple, reliable tool to track response times and SSL expiry without complex dependencies.

2The Solution

A 'Glass UI' dashboard that provides real-time health checks, SSL expiration alerts, and response time tracking. Built with a 'No-Build' philosophy for the frontend (Vanilla CSS + Import Maps) to ensure maximum speed and simplicity.
