// observe without the ceremony
The terminal view for what your network is doing.
HYN-view is a network-first monitor for Ubuntu servers that run 24/7. It covers what htop and btop cover, but inverts the priority: throughput, packet errors, retransmits and latency come first, because on a server the network is usually the story.
Pure bash on the box — no Node runtime, no compiled binary. One small resident bash process sends a heartbeat every 24 seconds and keeps itself updated; everything else runs from systemd timers. Pair a server and the dashboard shows it from anywhere in the world.
// benchmark
See the response, not the story.
// alert rules
Make the quiet failures loud.
Write rules the way you think about incidents. HYN-view evaluates them locally and gives you a readable output before a small issue becomes a pager.

// daily email reports
Your infrastructure's health, delivered to your inbox every morning.
HYN-view compiles a complete daily report of your server's vitals — temperature, uptime, latency, overall speed, and average internet speed — and sends it straight to your email. No dashboard login required to stay informed.

// incident notifications
Beyond the daily digest, HYN-view emails you the moment something goes wrong — with full configuration context attached, so you can act without opening a dashboard first.
- Server crash or unexpected restart
- Temperature above your configured threshold
- Any malfunction, timeout, or degraded service

// known limitations
HYN-view is intentionally small. It is not a distributed tracing platform, it will not retain history for you, and it cannot fix a slow upstream. It can show you where to look next.
// install
One command. Nothing to answer.
Ubuntu 22.04 or 24.04. Paste it, enter your sudo password, and walk away: it installs node if the box has none, installs the CLI, writes the config, and starts the resident agent that beats every 24 seconds and updates itself.
Pure bash on the box — no runtime, no compiled binary. npm is only the delivery channel. Read the script before you run it: hyn-view.in/install.sh.
install on the server
$ curl -fsSL https://www.hyn-view.in/install.sh | sudo bashwhat it does
- 1 · curl, CA certificates and node ≥ 18 if missing
- 2 · npm install -g hyn-view
- 3 · /etc/hyn-view/config, state dir, five systemd timers
- 4 · hyn-agent.service — 24s heartbeat, self-update, self-repair
- 5 · verifies the agent is running, and repairs it if not
then, to watch it from anywhere:
$ sudo hyn link
