Overview
Welcome to the Voux documentation!
What is Voux?
Voux (voo) is a self hosted view counter for blogs and websites, built to show view counts and simple stats without turning into a full analytics platform.
Philosophy
Voux is built to be useful without getting in the way. If all you need is a view count, it should not be complicated.
Why I built it
There were no good free hit counters left, so I decided to make my own. A long time ago there was a site called Cutercounter where you could make simple unique-visit counters, but it shut down. So I switched to freehitcounters.org for a while, but I wanted something I could control myself. If a service goes down or changes, I don't want to depend on it. So I built Voux to be my own version that anyone can run and trust.
When to use Voux
Use Voux if you want a simple counter without giving your traffic data to someone else.
It's good for:
- Personal blogs
- Indie websites
- Small projects that just need a view counter
