Found a great widget for monitoring my raspberry pi. RaspPi Check
But I would like to have a similar app with widget for my proxmox server. Does anyone have any suggestionsor other ideas?
I don't know if it has androd widgets, but ServerBox monitors any machine over SSH.
It seems it has a single widget, "status widget".

I am actually using this for quite a while but since its not developed anymore I also need to prep for the inevitable. Posted on this actually but only got one good suggestion, web based server side only though, OliveTin.
See my post https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/17822391
I know that their are great integrations on home assistant to monitor servers. Then you can make your own dashboard as you wish
Is there widgets also in HA?
Yes
Just this week, I setup Homepage to monitor my server and its various docker containers at a glance, including cpu/ram/network usage and a whole bunch of information pulled from their APIs (such as how many itemes are actively downloading via sonarr+sabnzbd, or how many queries were blocked by pihole today).
That in turn lead me too Glances, both as various widgets in Homepage as well as a stand alone tool.
Note: Homepage doesn't come with authentication. You'll have to handle that yourself via a reverse proxy or vpn. Glances has an optional login page you can enable, but I haven't explored that. I access services like these by connecting to my network through OpenVPN.
If you are decent with script type stuff, and have tasker, I believe you can build your own via kwgt:

You can use tasker to set up variables that kwgt then can render in several ways.
I've only done simpler things but it's worked well for me for years.
HM interesting i will dig in tö this! Thanks!
