Documentation

Welcome to the VectorPanel docs. Whether you're managing your first server or automating a fleet of hundreds, everything you need is here.

What is VectorPanel?

VectorPanel is a modern server control panel for Linux. It gives you a single, clean dashboard to manage everything that actually matters in production: websites, databases, SSL certificates, git-based deploys, backups, security, metrics, and access control.

It's designed as a professional alternative to cPanel, Plesk, and aaPanel — faster, safer, and built around a first-class API and CLI rather than retrofitting automation onto a point-and-click era.

Who is it for?

• Developers who want a sensible default server without writing Ansible roles from scratch.
• Agencies managing dozens of client servers who need role-based access and client portals.
• Hosting providers looking to replace cPanel licensing costs with predictable per-server pricing.
• Platform teams building internal PaaS on top of a stable, scriptable foundation.

Architecture at a glance

Every VectorPanel install has three pieces:

• Agent — a small Rust daemon on each managed server that runs commands and reports metrics.
• Control plane — the Next.js dashboard you log into at https://your-server:8443.
• API — the same REST endpoints the dashboard uses, open for your own scripts and integrations.
