1Panel
Backed by over 36,000 GitHub stars and 120 contributors with 123 releases since 2022, 1Panel has rapidly become the go-to open-source alternative to cPanel and Plesk for modern Linux server management. The platform delivers a clean Vue.js dashboard powered by a Go backend using the Gin framework, providing visual management of Docker containers, images, networks, and volumes without touching the command line. Its curated app marketplace offers one-click installation of 165+ trusted open-source applications including Nextcloud, Bitwarden, Umami analytics, WordPress, and NocoBase, each running in isolated containers for maximum security. Native AI capabilities set 1Panel apart from every competing panel: deploy Ollama LLMs directly from the dashboard, spin up OpenClaw personal agents, monitor GPU utilization, and manage AI models through a unified interface. Website management includes automatic domain binding, Let's Encrypt SSL certificate provisioning, and Nginx configuration with zero manual setup. Security runs deep with built-in firewall rules, fail2ban integration, container isolation, WAF protection, and comprehensive audit logging enabled from day one. Automated backups support AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, and local storage with one-click restore from any snapshot. The panel supports Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, and Rocky Linux across x86_64, aarch64, armv7l, ppc64le, and s390x architectures. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. GPL-3.0 licensed.
