Grafana’s built-in alerting works well, but once you have multiple folders, datasources, or environments, it gets surprisingly hard to answer simple questions like:
- Which alerts are currently firing? - Which ones are disabled or silenced? - Direct link between silenced alerts and their contact points?
This project provides a *dedicated dashboard that aggregates and visualizes Grafana alerts* in one place.
## What it does - Simplified alert UI for Walldisplay or TV screens - Shows all alert rules across folders and datasources and multiple Granafana instances - Clear status overview (firing, pending, normal, disabled) - Highlights alerts visually and audibly when they fire - Simple Search and filter views
## What it is not - It’s not a replacement for Grafana’s built-in alerting or notification system - It doesn’t manage or change alert rules, just visualizes them - It does not write to your Grafana instance or modify any settings
## Why I built it In my own self-hosted Grafana setup, alerting grew organically and eventually became messy, specially when handling multiple Grafana instances. I wanted a *single pane of glass* just for alert hygiene and visibility—something Grafana doesn’t really provide out of the box.

Feedback, issues, and PRs are very welcome. Happy to answer questions or explain design decisions if anyone’s curious.
If you’re running Grafana at home or in a homelab and care about alert quality, I think this will save you some time
