Agree, but this setup (node-exporter + Prometheus + Grafana) allows for a lot of expansion and customization. I'm sure there are simpler tools that tell you your computer status, and it's up to you to see which fits more your use-case.
I've felt that way before. But in this case of node-exporter and Prometheus, it's way simpler. You don't even need Docker, and the installation for both tools is basically a single line that you can copy and paste from their documentation.
Configuring Prometheus to accept node-exporter is a bit harder I admit, but again you can simply copy and paste the documentation example. The whole process should take like ~10 minutes if you follow the documentation.
Sweet, thank you
