aystemd — Open-source apps & tools

aystemd is an open-source organisation shipping focused developer tools and apps.

aystemd brings you the fastest open-source tools available for Linux developers. Our apps are minimal, self-hostable, and ship with zero telemetry — built for developers who actually care about what runs on their machines.

Every binary we ship is single-file and dependency-free, designed to drop into any Linux system. We offer a range of deployment options so you can run everything locally, on a VPS, or integrate into your existing workflow — including aystemd Managed for teams.

Single-binary installs with zero runtime dependencies for every tool we ship.
Store your secrets locally alongside your app config with vaultd's encrypted store.
Roll back any configuration change with no downtime and no data loss.
Full system observability with logpipe to give you a detailed view of what's running.
Automate your cron scheduling with our visual cronui interface.
Integrations with systemd, Docker, journald, Podman, Nix, and more.
All of this is backed by our best-in-class documentation.

"Tooling is hard. We would rather aystemd handle it. We wanted something that stays out of the way and just works — aystemd does exactly that. We've seen this come to fruition across our whole team."
