gocron

Gocron is a lightweight cron job runner written in Go that gives you a web UI to manage it all. Instead of editing crontab files on a server and hoping you got the syntax right, you get a dashboard where you can create, pause, and monitor scheduled jobs.

It's small, fast, and self-hosted only. MIT licensed. This is a focused tool, not a platform. You define jobs (shell commands or HTTP calls), set the schedule, and gocron handles execution and logging. The web UI shows run history and status at a glance.

Everything is free. No paid tier, no cloud offering. You run it in Docker or as a binary.

The catch: this is nascent, and a 2. The community is tiny, so if you hit a bug you're largely on your own. For serious production scheduling with retries, dependencies, and alerting, you want something heavier. But for a homelab or small server where you just need cron with a UI, gocron nails it.
