## What it is
ProxMenux is an interactive menu-driven toolkit for Proxmox VE that combines a terminal menu with a live web dashboard. It automates post-install configuration, backup/restore, and continuous health monitoring for homelab Proxmox servers.

## Use cases
- run post-install optimizations on a fresh Proxmox VE server
- back up and restore Proxmox VMs and containers from a menu
- monitor the health of my homelab Proxmox host from a web dashboard
- manage Proxmox VE without memorizing CLI commands
- automate homelab server maintenance tasks

## When to choose
- you run a Proxmox VE homelab and want guided, menu-driven administration
- you want a quick post-install setup plus ongoing monitoring in one tool
- you prefer a simple web dashboard over raw Proxmox CLI commands

## When to avoid
- you run VMware, Hyper-V, or another hypervisor instead of Proxmox VE
- you need enterprise-grade backup with deduplication and scheduling policies
- you require a fully unattended, API-driven automation pipeline rather than interactive menus
