I’ve investigated Archipel a few times when looking for VM solutions for my home server. It has a really appealing GUI, and for a while was sponsored by the maintainer’s employer. However, it hasn’t seen active development for a few years. At this point the only web presence is Cloudflare’s cache!
Take a look at the Github issues to see what I mean:
I never installed either of these systems, and eventually settled on FreeBSD + ZFS + ezjail for my isolation needs. VMs were overkill, and I use my workstation if I want to test out a different OS. I am considering a rebuild on Linux + ZFSOnLinux + Kubernetes now that ZFS on Linux is more mature, and I use Kubernetes at work.
I have to admit, this sentence is extremely uncompelling.
Dude chatting to a VM is amazing okay
XD. I knwo that does sound stupid, but other than that the management interface is nice hence why I posted.
Oh, it’s fine to post :D They could just sell it better, I think.
Oh yes, of course. It really isn’t a good selling point :).

True, I will keep that in mind when looking for such tools.
Can you recommend any other web management tools?
Take a look at Proxmox, which is a web GUI over KVM virtualization and LXC “fat” containers: https://www.proxmox.com/en/proxmox-ve

Ah. Yes Proxmox. I think I will settle on that. Thanks.
It would be nice to see archipel go further but hey this is great!
