Hi there! I’d like to share my project with you all.
What is this? Vigil is a lightweight, self-hosted dashboard that watches your Docker images and tells you when updates are available. It’s a ready-to-run Docker setup with a simple install scripts. I know most people don’t like scripts, but since I’m a tech noob I find it pretty useful. For all the pros out there, you can check the script by yourself. This is my first “real world” project so it might not be as polished as other apps out there. It’s a hobby that I started cultivating a few months ago and I’m pretty excited with the results. However, it’d only mean something significant, if other people use it and give their own opinions about it.
If you have a few minutes, I’d really appreciate you trying it out and leaving a review or suggestions on the repo or even here. I’d do my best to answer most of the comments.

Absolutelly vibecoding it with Cloude. I understand a bit of python and html but I’m no dev or technical professional at all. I just wanted to see if I could build something useful without much of technical expertise.
I appreciate you being honest in your response here.
I’d recommend adding this disclaimer to the post text and repo readme for complete transparency, and so anyone who doesn’t want to use AI-generated projects can move on without creating arguments in the comments.
There are many genuine reasons to not trust code generated by LLMs, especially with anything network-connected or handling important data, so it’s important to be upfront about it.
EDIT: removing this comment because I don’t think you will use this feedback responsibly
Hi @ramielrowe thanks for the feedback, that’s actually pretty good and I’ll start using it. I understand that all this AI thing can be sloppy, and create more friction than good, but I’m really fascinated by how it can help people with little knowledge to build something that a few years ago would’ve been only possible by experts.
