## What it is
StatusOK is a Go-based command-line tool that monitors websites and REST APIs from your own computer, checking availability and response times on a configurable schedule. It sends notifications via Slack or email when a server goes down or responds slower than expected, and can store metrics in InfluxDB for Grafana visualization.

## Use cases
- monitor my website uptime and get notified when it goes down
- watch REST API endpoints and alert on slow responses
- get email alerts when my server is unreachable
- send Slack notifications when an API returns unexpected status codes
- track API response times over time in InfluxDB and Grafana
- run a lightweight self-hosted uptime checker from my laptop

## When to choose
- you want a simple, single-binary, config-driven uptime monitor without deploying a full monitoring stack
- you need to monitor websites and REST APIs from your own machine with Slack or email alerts
- you want response-time history stored in InfluxDB and visualized in Grafana

## When to avoid
- you need distributed monitoring from multiple locations or a web dashboard UI
- you require modern alerting features like escalation policies, on-call schedules, or status pages
- you need actively maintained software with recent updates and broad database support
