Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

First-install notes

  • Check the Web API is answering Before connecting other tools, make a request to the /api/capabilities endpoint. This confirms the API is running and shows which X-Plane and API versions are available, so you can tell whether a problem is a missing connection or something else. source
  • Keep the example port in mind The examples use localhost:8086, where localhost means this computer and 8086 is the port (the number after the address) the API listens on. If your URL is missing 8086, your tools may not reach the simulator and requests will fail. source
