UpSnap is a simple Wake on LAN app written with SvelteKit, Go, PocketBase and nmap. Discover all devices on your Network by scanning it with just one click. You can easily set timed wake and shutdown events via cron. You also have the option to add custom ports to devices which will be pinged. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install UpSnap on your Synology NAS using Docker & Portainer.
