As someone who tried to build a fairly large project with HTMX + Go, I can say it just wasn't there for me. Maybe it will get there eventually, but I'm not convinced. For simple CR…

Yes! We're planning out terraform provider, It should land in v0.2.5, we're at v0.2.3 now.

It's funny, I love how FreeBSD manages iSCSI even though I have only used it a few times, I put it in my to-do list but never really got around to writing a UI for it. Come next re…

That’s fair, but Sylve isn’t GUI-only. We’re API-first, the UI is just a client on top. We already ship Swagger docs with the code (docs/ on the repo), so everything the UI does is…

Yeah, that’s pretty much been my experience as well. Last time I seriously used Proxmox with ZFS (I think 8.4.x), it felt a bit… bolted on. It works fine for the common VM workflow…

Yeah, I’m kind of in the same camp. I never really had issues with systemd either. It mostly just works, even if it’s a bit heavy. For me, moving to FreeBSD wasn’t about escaping s…

Author of Sylve here, and I helped deploy the setup in the post. > All I read is that they are still doing ClickOPS over DevSecOps!! Their setup is mostly working on embedded stuff…

OP here. It’s less about Sylve doing something Proxmox can’t do, and more about a bunch of QoL improvements that come from us being heavy Proxmox users and building what we felt wa…

That’s true, bhyve doesn’t support nested virtualization right now. In practice though, most setups don’t actually need it if you’re running workloads directly on the host. Also, i…

OP here. One thing we mentioned in the blog but probably didn’t emphasize enough is how deeply ZFS is integrated into the UI. With Sylve, you rarely need to touch the CLI. Snapshot…

LXCs are pretty similar to jails, and Sylve makes them really easy to use. One nice trick is that you can template a base jail and clone it any number of times straight from the UI…

That’s fair, but that kind of reinforces my point. If the expected recovery path is “wipe and reinstall,” then it’s clearly not just a thin layer on top of Debian. It’s effectively…

It’s not really just a fancy UI though. The entire Sylve bundle (backend + frontend) is ~55 MB, fully self-contained, and doesn’t mess with the base system in any destructive way. …

It’s kind of funny, Debian was my distro of choice since I was 15, so about 10 years up until last year. I still envy its huge application ecosystem. But over time I’ve come to rea…

I would've given up on this project without Svelte 5! It’s so hard to justify React after using it. Proxmox always felt sluggish, but Sylve with Svelte stays smooth even on large c…

Sylve Dev here! The port is in review and the maintainers has told me that it'll be merged into the next quarterly slush (which is next week). And the installation script on the we…

I’ve been working on Sylve, a management plane focused on making FreeBSD infrastructure easier to manage. It integrates closely with FreeBSD (Bhyve, ZFS, networking) and provides a…

Author here: I get where you’re coming from and long term, I agree. I don’t want FreeBSD to slowly turn into "Linux but different." For me though, the Linuxulator is about practica…

We build and sell multi-service business gateways, basically devices that do networking, VoIP, etc. all in one box. https://difuse.io/ if you're interested!

I'm curious, what hardware would you run it on?
