Today, I published the code for my simple little status page titled “jvlu”. It is written in V and doesn’t have a lot of features. It allows to check the health of an HTTP server by comparing the response status to an expected status. You can also try to connect to a TCP socket and see if a connection succeeds.

The web page doesn’t contain any more information than necessary. Just the online status, response time and when a service was seen last.

Why not try it out?

Update (March 25, 2023): the application WAS written in V. With version 0.2.0, I rewrote it in Go. V was simply too hard to work with as I was always struggling to even get the compiler to run.
