Show HN: Uptime monitor and status page powered by GitHub (upptime.js.org)

This weekend, I built Upptime (https://upptime.js.org), a free and open-source uptime monitoring template repository, with a Svelte-powered status page website.

It uses GitHub Actions to monitor your webpages' availability every 5 minutes and opens a new issue if something is down. You can add incident reports as comments on the issue, and the issue is automatically closed when you site comes back up. It also logs the response time as commit history (four times a day) and generates graphs (once a day). The static site uses the GitHub API to fetch real-time data from the repository.

Essentially, it's entirely GitHub-powered (no servers required), and is a free alternate to uptime monitoring services along with a nice status website. The repository is available at https://github.com/koj-co/upptime.
