Getting it running

Difficulty · hard Time to first run · 1h+

Requires installing a Komodo server instance plus deploying an agent binary on each server you want to manage.

You can use, modify, and share this freely, but any modified version you distribute must also be open-source under the same GPL v3 license.

In plain English

Komodo is a tool for managing the process of building and deploying software across multiple servers at once. If you run several servers and want a single place to handle builds, deployments, and configuration changes across all of them, Komodo lets you connect an unlimited number of servers and control everything from one interface. The project explicitly commits to having no server limit and no gated "business edition." All features are available to everyone who runs it, and no paid tier is required to unlock more capacity or more API access for automation. It is fully open-source under the GPL v3 license, which means anyone can inspect, modify, and redistribute the source code. Based on the screenshots included in the README, Komodo provides a web-based dashboard that shows the state of your servers and deployments in one place. The interface includes views for managing Docker Compose stacks, environment variables, server statistics, configuration syncing, and software update management. Both light and dark themes are available. The project is written in Rust. It provides a public demo instance you can log into with the credentials shown in the README, along with a documentation site at komo.do for full setup and configuration guidance. A Discord community is available for questions and support. The README for Komodo is brief and points primarily to the external documentation and demo rather than explaining every feature in detail. If you want to understand how to install and configure it on your own servers, the documentation at komo.do is where to start.
