Im assuming these comments said that it was giving a 404. I forgot to
set the repo to public. 🤦‍♂️ It's public now.

Yep it did. Works now, thanks!

I checked it out and it looks really good. What I especially like is
that the targets are configurable via yaml which fits well for my
usecase.

Very happy to hear :), let me know if you encounter some issue or if
you see an important feature missing.

This is not a "health" monitoring app. Its uptime monitoring app or
online monitoring or something along those lines.

Thanks for the feedback, what would a health monitoring app do? Isnt
uptime considered part of the "health"? This is MVP and I plan to add
more small features that perform more checks (like whether response
contains certain string)

Health monitoring app would monitor health, I never heard of health
using in conjunction with online status , sometimes hard drives but
not uptime or online status, that's just my opinion

There's [health check in docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/refere
nce/builder/#healthcheck). That's not an opinion .

This might work...but Netdata can sometimes be a CPU/Memory hog

What are the benefits compared to Uptime-Kuma? Been using it for ever
and it seems very complete and nice looking.

I'd say inxidents is much simpler and more dev-centric (as of now 180
lines of Go code, one simple config file) no dependencies, and quite
hackable for go enthusiasts.
The dashboard is also a bit different, inxidents dashboard is to serve
as an visual alert and be seen from far away when a service goes down
(think office wall monitors)
