What is Stylus?
Stylus is a status page for home infrastructure and networks. It runs configurable test scripts written in bash, Python, or any language at regular intervals to check service health. The tool then generates a dynamic CSS stylesheet and JSON status endpoint that can drive HTML or SVG dashboards. The web UI includes built-in visualizations like tables and network diagrams, and can embed iframes or inject CSS into local pages. It runs as a single binary with no database required, using roughly 2MB RAM for a dozen services on a Raspberry Pi. Installation options include Docker (multi-arch), static binaries from GitHub releases, Cargo, or building from source. The project is written in Rust and licensed under Apache-2.0.
