Thanks for asking :) Writing this much Bash is quite straining because there is a lot of typing, but it is also liberating in the sense of coding very close to the OS (utils).

Also, most of it is not written in Bash, it's written in Posix standard, which is even more spartanic, but is then compatible with Dash and Ash (BusyBox) also, which is good because Bash is not always available.

To make Simplenetes we used another tool we also created which is meant for writing shell script apps and to perform agent-less automation, it is called Space.sh [1]

About tools for getting an overview of the cluster, there is only the command line tooling as for now, which does parts of the job, but tools for analyzing traffic and such is not created yet.

Thanks for the reply & info. (I'm not good at shell scripting :-))

I wonder if there's a way to get notified when it's closer to stable, .. maybe following you on Twitter? I barely ever check Twitter though

Sure :) follow me as @bashlund on twitter but also star the repo on github https://github.com/simplenetes-io/simplenetes
