**#A quick edit to address something important and provide a disclaimer: **
Thank you all for your feedback! This project was “vibecoded” with Cloude AI and serves more as a “proof of concept” for what could be achieved with AI assistance. I’m just a tech enthusiast, and I’m excited to continue exploring new possibilities. I understand there’s a real concern about “AI Slop,” but that’s exactly why I’m sharing this project with you all so that experts who are interested in the idea can offer guidance or even help improve it.
I’ve noticed that many people with home labs prefer to update their applications manually instead of relying on other apps that automate the process. Often, they have to check each one individually. That’s where Vigil comes in. The primary function of Vigil is to centralize the information and give users clear visibility of which applications are outdated, their current version, and the newer version available from several sources. This way, you can decide what and when to update.
To be honest, I hope it ends up being useful to others as it is for me.
If you have a few minutes, I’d really appreciate you trying it out and leaving a review or suggestions on the repo or even here. I’d do my best to answer most of the comments.
for a very long time it was not only possible for experts. like, I would say the last 10-15 years, maybe even more. It’s very harmful that people can now create things they don’t even know how to check what it does, and they just assume this “sentient thing” actually produced what you wanted with no major flaws. thing is, you (or anyone else vibecoding things) won’t be able to determine what is good or bad without taking the time and learning the building blocks, learning how they work and how they are supposed to be used.
also your comments look like AI generated comments, fake enthusiasm and all the rest. it does not inspire much confidence
