Site Watcher Engine

Overview

Site Watcher Engine is a backend API built with Go for monitoring the availability and health status of websites and web services. The system uses goroutines to perform periodic website checks concurrently, while WebSocket connections provide real-time status updates to connected clients. JWT is used for secure authentication, and Swagger provides interactive API documentation. The application uses MySQL for persistent monitoring data, with the database environment running through Docker for consistent local development and deployment.
