Tortoise Labs Panel - In House?

VPNsh

Hey guys,

Just wondering which panel tortoise labs are using for their server management and billing? I haven't seen it elsewhere so was wondering whether or not it's in house?

Thanks,
Liam

Yea I think it was an admin template he got on themeforest for like $20

manacit

iirc it's nulled solus with a custom theme and a couple features added from fiverr, not too shabby i guess.

Thanks @serverian - anywhere else using this?

chauffer

@liamwithers Yeah, they outsourced JS/HTML to ThemeForest and prettified Solus/WHMCS through their APIs, not too hard at all

puffrfish

Yeah, it's a WHMCS/Solus frontend made with Microsoft FrontPage and Adobe ColdFusion

@liamwithers: some components of our panel are open source, but the parts related to our core product are proprietary at this time.

longer than that really, some of the concepts were concepts that were originally developed as part of the rapidxen platform.

albeit these are radically redesigned in a lot of ways, for example, the original appliancekit was extended using python, which seemed to be the future at the time... the new appliancekit uses bytecode compiled from a JSON representation of nodes containing commands or templates to render. and, the new appliancekit can run on bare metal.

there's also a different asynchronous queue method than the original rapidxen system, called Edia, which uses a signature scheme using shared secrets instead of XML document signing which is a complete design disaster.
