Web VMStat is a small web application that displays live Linux system statistics in the browser. It takes the type of data normally shown by the vmstat command and presents it in a cleaner visual interface. The app streams system metrics through WebSocket communication using websocketd. It charts those metrics with Smoothie Charts, giving users a live view of CPU, memory, I/O, swap, and other system activity. The project is meant as a lightweight process that can be installed on machines a user wants to monitor. Overall, it is a useful demo and monitoring utility for turning command-line Linux performance data into a more readable web dashboard.
