You don't need browser to check if a website is up!

You don't need browser to check if a website is up!

Well, the title is quite an obvious statement… You can use softwares such as restclient from emacs, curl and probably a gazillion others.

However, there is not another one made in janet, authored by me, made in the last month! I can guarantee it!

The Goal

Well, my goal here was to make a simple software that did one thing and well. That one thing is to check multiple urls if they are up and the status they would return.

The code

This is another one in the janet journey. I used a ncurses wrapper to create the tui. All you need is a url file with a name reference and the respective url to be checked. With just this, you are ready to use it.

What does it look like?
