# dPanel Enterprise

> Pure Rust, single-binary, high-performance Linux web server control panel engineered by DEV SEC IT.

## Overview

dPanel Enterprise is an open-source, ultra-lightweight alternative to cPanel, Plesk, and aaPanel. Written in 100% memory-safe Rust with Tokio async I/O and Axum HTTP engine, it consumes less than 40MB of RAM and executes commands in sub-milliseconds.

## Key Capabilities

- **Pure Rust Daemon**: Single compiled binary containing web UI and database migrations via `rust-embed`.
- **Privilege Separation**: Non-root web UI daemon communicating with privileged root worker over `/run/dpanel.sock` Unix Domain Socket.
- **Web & SSL**: Nginx virtual host orchestration, HTTP/2 & HTTP/3 QUIC, automated Let's Encrypt ACME renewal.
- **Application Runtimes**: Multi-PHP pools (8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4), Node.js + PM2 process supervisor, Docker container management.
- **Database Engines**: MySQL, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL management with 1-click dump/restore and remote host whitelisting.
- **Security & Hardening**: Dynamic UFW firewall management, Fail2ban brute-force protection, SSH key authentication, atomic JWT session control.
- **Storage & DNS**: elFinder & native web file manager, Pure-FTPd virtual user chroot, BIND9 authoritative DNS zone manager, automated snapshot backups.
