botpress/status

This repository is an example template for cState, a tool that creates status pages, those websites you've probably visited when checking whether Slack, GitHub, or your cloud provider is having an outage. It shows visitors whether your service is up, degraded, or down, and lets you post updates during incidents so users know what's happening and when things are fixed. At a high level, the repository holds a starter site that you customize with your own branding and service details. The actual design and functionality live in a separate "theme" package that this template pulls in. When you make changes, you run a command that builds your status page and lets you preview it locally before publishing. The README includes the specific commands for updating the theme when new versions come out, but doesn't go deep on initial setup, it points to a separate wiki for that. This is meant for teams or individuals running any kind of online service where users might ask "is it just me, or is this down?" A SaaS company, a hosting provider, or even a small open-source project could use it to communicate uptime and incidents professionally without building a custom solution. One thing worth noting: the project is built on Hugo, a static site generator, which means the resulting status page is fast and lightweight, there's no database or server-side application to maintain. You write your updates, the site rebuilds, and you deploy the resulting files wherever you host static websites. This trades off some real-time dynamism for simplicity and reliability, which is arguably a reasonable trade for a status page that needs to stay available even when your main service isn't. The project is open source under an MIT license.
