why there is no dedicated graphical user interface (GUI) application for Prometheus

[anirudh-hegde]

Proposal

Please develop a dedicated graphical user interface (GUI) application for Prometheus.

Thank you for your suggestion. What would be the benefits of such an application? It seems like a regular browser is sufficient for accessing the UI.

Is there a GUI for prometheus other than Grafana? I can't find it.

[anirudh-hegde]

Please develop a dedicated graphical user interface (GUI) application for Prometheus.

• Enhanced Performance and offline data analysis.
• Also a dedicated app can offer a consistent user experience whether it's used on Windows, MacOS, Linux or other platforms.

[roidelapluie]

You can run prometheus on your machine and access it offline. And the web UI also provides a consistent user experience across platforms.

Hi @anirudh-hegde, I'd suggest probing the project prometheus-api. The latest release already supports GUI for rules management. Please take time to have a look at the project and feel free to open new feature requests.
