Quickstart

Hoppla is a website monitoring platform that keeps an eye on your websites, servers, and scheduled tasks around the clock. It checks uptime, SSL certificates, DNS records, broken links, performance, and much more -- all from a single dashboard. Hoppla is available both as a hosted cloud service at app.hoppla.dev and as a self-hosted install you run on your own infrastructure. This guide walks you through creating your account, adding your first monitor, and setting up alerts so you never miss a critical issue.

Create Your Account

1. Go to app.hoppla.dev and click Sign Up.
2. Enter your name, email address, and a strong password.
3. Check your inbox for a verification email and click the confirmation link.
4. Log in with your new credentials.

You now have access to your team workspace. Every resource you create -- monitors, notification channels, status pages -- belongs to this team, and you can invite colleagues later from the Settings page.

Dashboard Overview

Once logged in, the dashboard gives you an at-a-glance view of everything Hoppla is tracking.

• Monitors -- Your list of monitored URLs and endpoints, each showing current status, response time, and recent uptime percentage.
• Incidents -- A timeline of all detected outages and issues, with duration, affected checks, and resolution status.
• Status Pages -- Public or private status pages you can share with your users to communicate uptime and ongoing incidents.
• Settings -- Team management, notification channels, API tokens, and billing.

The dashboard updates in real time, so you see status changes the moment they happen -- no need to refresh.

Next Steps

You are ready to start monitoring. Here is where to go from here:

• Your First Monitor -- Add a website and start collecting data in under a minute.
• Understanding Checks -- Learn the difference between monitors and checks, and explore every check type Hoppla offers.
• Alerting -- Set up notification channels and rules so the right people get notified when something goes wrong.
