Versions:
alter 1.0.0 by thechandanbhagat is a Windows-first, single-binary process manager that lets developers launch, monitor, and control applications written in Python, Node.js, Go, Rust, .NET, or PHP from one unified CLI. Built with PM2-inspired ergonomics, the tool keeps services alive through auto-restart with exponential backoff, file-system watch mode, and state persistence across reboots, while grouping related workloads into namespaces for bulk start, stop, or reload operations. A real-time web dashboard served on http://localhost:2999/ couples live log streaming, CPU/RAM/GPU analytics, and an embedded browser terminal based on xterm.js; Argon2id-hashed passwords and session tokens protect remote access, and a companion Telegram bot forwards push notifications that can also be routed to Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, or generic webhooks. Multi-server management is built in, so one UI can orchestrate several alter instances, and the integrated tunnel manager guides users through installing cloudflared, ngrok, or bore for public exposure. Git workflows are equally streamlined: a single click pulls the latest code, reinstalls dependencies, and restarts the affected service. Process cloning duplicates existing configurations instantly, ecosystem files in TOML or JSON declare entire application fleets, and a full REST API enables headless automation. Windows users benefit from CREATE_NO_WINDOW behaviour that suppresses console pop-ups, and the nine-version release history shows steady evolution toward a comprehensive yet lightweight development operations suite. alter is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
