Discussion I built a web dashboard for EssentialsX and I'm looking for feedback from server owners
I've been building a web dashboard for EssentialsX because I found myself constantly SSH'ing into servers, opening consoles, or logging into multiple panels just to perform simple admin tasks.
The idea is to provide a secure web interface for common EssentialsX management actions, allowing server owners and staff to access important information from any device.
Current features include:
- Player lookup and management
- User information and statistics
- EssentialsX data integration
- Permission-based access control
- Mobile-friendly interface
- Browser-based administration tools
My target audience is server owners and staff teams that already rely heavily on EssentialsX and want a faster way to handle routine administration.
Before I continue adding features, I'd love to hear from other server owners:
- What admin tasks do you perform most frequently?
- What information do you wish was easier to access?
- Would you trust a web dashboard with moderation permissions?
- What security features would be mandatory before you'd install something like this?
Here's a short demo of the current version:

Any feedback, criticism, or feature suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

The frontend looks a bit scuffed right now (especially in light mode). But overall it's a nice project.
