Zap is a development web/proxy server that knows how to start and manage yourdevelopment server processes, and provides SSL access to them.

Zap allows you to specify any command to start a backend server, we've tested it with:

• Elixir/Phoenix
• Ruby/Rails
• Go/Buffalo
• Go/Hugo
• Simple Proxy
• Static HTML

• SSL - creates a self-signed cert for each domain so you can test SSL in dev
• Process management - start, monitor, spin down idle apps
• Log watching - watches log files and restarts application on certain triggers
• Works on macOS, Linux and Windows (some manual installation required on Linux & Windows)

Either grab a binary for your platform from the Releases page or grab the code and build your own

gobuild-ozapd main.go #buildthezapdbinaryzapd-install #runtheinstaller

• Status UI

Inspired by pow (http://pow.cx/) and puma-dev (https://github.com/puma/puma-dev)

To recompile the HTML templates, build and restart the server

pushd zap; go-bindata -pkg zap -o templates.go templates/; popd && go build -o zapd main.go && pkill zapd
