Uptime Bot

Small scheduled service that keeps free-tier hosts awake by polling them, so a demo link does not cold-start in front of whoever opens it.

Automation Ops

01Overview

A small scheduled service that keeps free-tier hosts from falling asleep by polling them.

It exists so that a demo link does not cold-start in front of whoever opens it, which is a real cost when the first impression is a loading spinner.

02How it is built

  • Scheduled polling on a fixed interval.
  • Keeps demonstration deployments warm.
  • Deliberately tiny.
