What is it?
LeePanel is a desktop application for managing Linux VPS servers. Instead of installing a web panel on the server, it runs on your local machine and performs every operation through SSH commands, so no panel code, extra ports or background services are left on the server.
The app covers common server administration tasks in one client: an SSH terminal and SFTP file browser, LNMP stack setup (Nginx, MySQL/MariaDB, PHP-FPM with version switching), virtual host and Let's Encrypt SSL management, MySQL and Redis data management, Docker containers and images, firewall rules (ufw, firewalld, iptables), and real-time system monitoring. It is built with Tauri 2, React 19 and Rust, and its installer is stated to be around 6 MB. Current testing targets Ubuntu and Debian.
