About swizzin
swizzin is a collection of bash scripts for Debian-based servers that automates installing, managing and administering seedbox software. Users choose which applications to install, and the scripts install those apps plus required dependencies, using Nginx and a Swizzin Panel dashboard.
It supports 64-bit amd64 and arm64 systems running Debian Buster, Bullseye and Bookworm or Ubuntu Focal and Jammy, including Raspberry Pis that run 64-bit. Setup requires SSH access and running the installer as root, and applications run directly on the host rather than in Docker containers.
