Hello everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹

I just launched a little personal project called KumaTray: a lightweight Windows system tray application that allows you to monitor your Uptime Kuma - https://github.com/louislam/uptime-kuma instances without having a browser tab open.

It runs silently in the background and notifies you instantly if a service goes down. Simple and straightforward, no unnecessary extras, just the alerts you need to act fast.

๐Ÿ”ง Features:

  • ๐Ÿ”” Real-time notifications when the status of a monitor changes.

  • ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Full system tray integration (minimized and right-click control).

  • ๐Ÿ”„ Automatic update of the status of services.

  • ๐Ÿ” 2FA support for secure login.

  • ๐ŸŒ Support for HTTPS.

  • ๐Ÿ“Š Displays detailed statistics of affected monitors.

  • ๐Ÿ“ฆ Lightweight and low resource consumption.

Installation:

You can run it from source code (Python 3.9+) or download a standalone .exe

The repository: https://github.com/querylab/kumatray

Website: https://kumatray.com/

I hope someone else finds it useful! I welcome any comments or suggestions.
