## What it is
Crocodile is a distributed task scheduling system written in Go with a web UI for managing scheduled tasks. It supports HTTP request tasks and running shell, Python, Node.js, and Go code across worker nodes, with real-time logs, task dependencies, and Redis/MySQL backing.

## Use cases
- schedule cron jobs across multiple servers
- run shell scripts on a schedule with a web UI
- distribute periodic tasks to worker machines
- trigger HTTP requests on a schedule
- chain parent and child tasks with dependencies
- view real-time logs of running scheduled tasks
- self-hosted alternative to cron with alerting

## When to choose
- you need a self-hosted distributed scheduler with a web interface
- you want to run scripts or HTTP tasks across many worker nodes
- you need real-time task logs and the ability to kill running tasks
- you want task dependency chains and retry/alerting features

## When to avoid
- you only need simple single-machine cron scheduling
- you don't want to operate Redis and MySQL dependencies
- you need a fully managed cloud scheduler
- your tasks require runtimes not supported by the workers

## Facets
- artifact type: application
