Motivation

• I was looking for a self-hosted monitoring tool like "Uptime Robot", but it is hard to find a suitable one. One of the close one is statping. Unfortunately, it is not stable and unmaintained.
• Want to build a fancy UI.
• Learn Vue 3 and vite.js.
• Show the power of Bootstrap 5.
• Try to use WebSocket with SPA instead of REST API.
• Deploy my first Docker image to Docker Hub.
