Hi HN! I created remstat (short for: remote status) because I found myself wanting a simple way to monitor long-running tasks like training a deep learning model, downloading and processing a bunch of images, etc. I was tired of running over to my laptop to check for a pulse and see how things were going. A lot of great services out there would have met that need, but they also seemed to involve setting up a database or installing service-specific libraries or integrating APIs designed for use cases that were more sophisticated than what I really wanted or needed for these one-off tasks. I just wanted to record some numbers and see them on a plot on my phone, ideally using nothing other than the basic Python libraries I already know and love. I'm sharing it in its current, very basic state because I have a sneaking suspicion that what I was looking for already exists and that I just didn't do a good job finding it. Feedback welcome, especially of the form, "XYZ already does exactly what you want, and it has the option to do much more."

You do have to set up an account and sign in to use the service, which I know is not appreciated in a Show HN. But the main page has a pretty clear demo showing how it works to help you decide if it's worth a look, the privacy policy is straightforward, we only collect your email address, there are no trackers at all, and you can delete your account along with all your data with just one click.
