alter is a single-binary process manager inspired by PM2, built for Windows-first
developers.
Run and manage any application - Python, Node.js, Go, Rust, .NET,
PHP - from a single CLI with:
- Auto-restart with exponential backoff on crash
- Watch mode (restart on file changes)
- Namespaces for grouping and bulk-controlling processes
- Live log streaming in terminal and browser
- Real-time web dashboard at http://localhost:2999/
- Password-protected dashboard with Argon2id hashing and session tokens
- Telegram bot for remote process control and push notifications
- Notifications via Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, and webhook
- Tunnel management (cloudflared, ngrok, bore) with guided in-app provider install
- Browser-based terminal with full PTY support via xterm.js
- Git integration: pull, reinstall dependencies, and restart in one click
- System resource stats (CPU, RAM, GPU) on the Analytics dashboard
- Multi-server support: manage multiple alter instances from one web UI
- Process clone: duplicate any process config instantly
- State persistence (save/restore across reboots)
- Ecosystem config via TOML or JSON
- Full REST API
- No console window popups on Windows (CREATE_NO_WINDOW)
- Process enable/disable flag (include or exclude from Start All without removing)
- Multi-provider AI assistant (Ollama, GitHub Models, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI-compatible)

- Daemon-side UI settings (view mode persists across browser sessions)
Maelezo ya mchapishaji (Kiingereza)
alter ni nini?
alter ni programu ya chanzo huria ya Windows kutoka thechandanbhagat, katika kategoria ya “Lugha na SDK”. Imeandikwa kwa TypeScript.
Usakinishaji na mahitaji
Kuna visakinishi rasmi kwa 64-bit katika muundo wa EXE (Inno Setup). Usakinishaji unaomba haki za msimamizi. Inahitaji Windows 10 1809 au mpya zaidi. Kisakinishi kinaruhusu usakinishaji bila maswali (kimya).
Masasisho na historia ya matoleo
Toleo la sasa ni 1.3.2, lililotolewa 10 Oktoba 2026. Yameorodheshwa matoleo 12 tangu 23 Februari 2026, na kila moja lina viungo vya faili zake za kisakinishi. Sasisho la mwisho lina umri wa chini ya mwezi mmoja.
Umaarufu na aina za faili
Msimbo chanzo kwenye GitHub (thechandanbhagat/alter-pm) una nyota 14. Programu zinazofanana ni pamoja na Go Programming Language, LLVM na Deno.
Maelezo ya mradi kwenye GitHub: “Alter and manage your local developed app in one place without opening the code and command. Also manage the cron job in any language”
Faida / Hasara
Faida
- Chanzo huria: mtu yeyote anaweza kukagua na kujenga msimbo
- Usakinishaji kimya umeelezwa
- Imesasishwa ndani ya miezi miwili iliyopita
Hasara
- Hakuna toleo asili la ARM64
- Usakinishaji unahitaji haki za msimamizi
Kwa ufupi: alter ni zana ya chanzo huria ya kundi la “Lugha na SDK” kwa kompyuta za 64-bit. Wasimamizi wa mifumo wanaweza kuisambaza bila maswali.
Je, ni salama kupakua alter?
- Faili inatolewa na github.com, kikoa cha mchapishaji mwenyewe
- Kiungo cha kupakua kinatumia HTTPS
- Hashi ya SHA256 imechapishwa, hivyo unaweza kuthibitisha faili:
23849AF754D796DC323FE2EF034031E0A36B0A70E9B9A5D8F7F9336A3742AEBA· Fungua ripoti ya VirusTotal ya hashi hii - Kiungo bado hakijakaguliwa
- Msimbo chanzo uko wazi kwa umma
- ExeAtlas haihifadhi, haifungi wala haibadilishi visakinishi

Maswali yanayoulizwa mara kwa mara
Je, alter ni bure?
Ndiyo. alter ni programu ya chanzo huria chini ya leseni ya MIT.
Je, ni salama kupakua alter?
Faili inapakuliwa kutoka github.com, ambayo ni ya mchapishaji mwenyewe; ExeAtlas haihifadhi wala haibadilishi faili. Linganisha hashi yake ya SHA256 na ile iliyoonyeshwa hapa, au fungua ripoti ya VirusTotal ya hashi hiyo.
Jinsi ya kusakinisha alter kwa winget?
Fungua PowerShell au Windows Terminal na uendeshe amri ya winget iliyoonyeshwa kwenye ukurasa huu. winget hupakua kisakinishi rasmi na kukagua hashi yake ya SHA256 kabla ya kukiendesha.
Je, alter inaweza kusakinishwa kimya?
Ndiyo. Ukurasa wa usakinishaji kimya unaonyesha amri kamili kwa kila kisakinishi.
alter inafanya kazi kwenye matoleo gani ya Windows?
Kisakinishi kinahitaji Windows 10 1809 au mpya zaidi na kinapatikana kwa 64-bit.
Je, alter inafanya kazi kwenye ARM (Windows on Arm)?
Hakuna toleo la ARM64; Windows 11 on Arm inaweza kuendesha toleo la 64-bit kupitia uigaji (emulation).
Wapi pa kupakua toleo la zamani la alter?
Ukurasa wa matoleo unaorodhesha matoleo 12 yote pamoja na viungo vya faili rasmi za kisakinishi, kuanzia 23 Februari 2026.
Ni programu gani mbadala wa alter?
Go Programming Language, LLVM, Deno, CMake na Yarn. Ukurasa wa mbadala unazilinganisha.
