This project seems abandoned

[louwrentius]

I might be stating the obvious but for those who didn't notice:

This project seems abandoned because no commits have been made for years:
https://github.com/kimchi-project/kimchi/graphs/code-frequency

Also the kimchi-devel@ovirt.org mailinglist is basically emtpy:
https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/kimchi-devel@ovirt.org

OK, buyt someone knows some other tool that do the same?

[VeldoraTheDragon]

yep, would be also interested into a tool, that does the same.

I have heard about mist.io, but I'm not very satisfied with the RAM-usage, when it's only running, without any vm's turned on. (about 1.5GB)

Not a fan of Proxmox and XCP-NG. Rather a distro independed tool that can be installed on any linux distro that supports qemu/kvm.

Cockpit with the machines app is a great alternative.

@jdgregson Yea I've heard about Cockpit and used the machines app already.

Unfortunately doesn't it meet my needs. Additionally is cockpit a complete web-ui to admin a server including terminal, users, services and additional services I dont need.

Would there be a standalone variant of the cockpit-machines app, like kimchi would've been, it would actually be a useful alternative (not that I want to say, that machines w. cockpit isn't useful, it just has too many features to just administer some vm's).

4 years is tough...

Proxmox is an alternative

Proxmox is an alternative

Proxmox is indeed a worthy alternative, however it comes as a complete installable OS, instead of just the web-ui.
Kimchi on the other hand had the option to be installed on any Linux-Distro you chose you want to run.

Proxmox is bound to Debian. Which is okay for the most users, but for me, I'm looking for an alternative I can run at least on Alpine Linux or if really want to, a Distro built upon LFS.

A Distro-independent solution in this case.
