hotel is a developer tool that manages local services behind a friendly dashboard and automatically provisions per-project HTTP proxies. Instead of remembering port numbers and launch commands, you register apps once and then start, stop, or auto-start them from a central UI. The tool sets up a lightweight reverse proxy so each service gets a nice local domain, reducing friction when switching between multiple apps and APIs. Cross-platform support and a simple configuration format make it easy to onboard a team to a shared local workflow. Because hotel can run commands to boot services on demand, laptops stay quieter and lighter until you actually need a process. It’s especially handy in polyglot repos where Node, Python, or Go services otherwise require bespoke scripts and ports.
