## What it is
A web-based dashboard for managing Apache APISIX, the open-source API gateway. It provides a frontend interface for operating APISIX routes, upstreams, and plugins instead of using the Admin API directly.

## Use cases
- manage APISIX routes and upstreams through a web UI
- configure API gateway plugins without curling the Admin API
- visualize and edit gateway configuration for microservices
- administer rate limiting and authentication settings on APISIX
- set up a self-hosted control panel for an API gateway
- onboard team members to manage gateway config without CLI access

## When to choose
- you run Apache APISIX and want a GUI instead of raw Admin API calls
- your team prefers visual configuration of routes, upstreams, and plugins
- you need a self-hosted management console for your API gateway

## When to avoid
- you use a different API gateway like Kong or Traefik
- you prefer declarative or GitOps-style configuration via the Ingress Controller
- you only need simple setups where the Admin API or Helm chart suffices

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active

- domain: apis, microservices, web-development, self-hosted
