- It goes down with your homeA bot on your own PC or a Raspberry Pi stops when the power cuts out or the wifi drops.
- A crash stays crashedIf it falls over at 3am, it stays offline until you notice and start it again.
What you get here
- Always onYour bot keeps running around the clock. It never sleeps for being idle.
- Restarts itself if it crashesIf your bot falls over, it's started again automatically.
- Runs with your laptop shutClose the tab, turn off your computer. Your bot stays online.
