Hiddify Manager: One Panel for All Your Proxy Protocols
If you've ever tried to run more than one proxy protocol on a single server, you know the drill. One config file here, a separate service there, a dashboard that only speaks to half your stack, and no real way to track who's using what. It's a mess of moving parts that all need to stay in sync. Hiddify Manager is an attempt to put that whole mess behind a single management panel, and it's worth a look if you're tired of juggling separate tools.
What It Does
Hiddify Manager is a panel for managing multiple proxy protocols from one place. Instead of standing up and babysitting a separate admin interface for each protocol you want to support, you get a unified manager that handles them together. The project ships as a Python package (published as hiddifypanel on PyPI) and is distributed through GitHub releases, with active development reflected in a steady commit history.
Beyond the core panel, the project puts real effort into accessibility for a global audience. The README links out to documentation in Persian, Russian, and Simplified Chinese alongside the English default, and points you to a Wiki, an FAQ section in GitHub Discussions, and an issue tracker for bug reports. There's also a Telegram channel and support group, plus a YouTube channel, so there are several ways to get help or follow along if you get stuck.
Why It's Cool
-
One panel, many protocols. The core pitch is consolidation. Managing proxies usually means fragmenting your setup across tools that don't talk to each other. Hiddify Manager's reason for existing is to collapse that into a single interface, which cuts down on the mental overhead of keeping several dashboards in sync.
-
The docs actually meet people where they are. Multi-language documentation isn't a flashy feature, but it's a meaningful one. A project that ships Persian, Russian, and Chinese READMEs is signaling who it's built for. That kind of reach matters for tools in this space, where a lot of users aren't native English speakers.
-
Structured support channels. Rather than dumping everything into one issue tracker, the project separates concerns: a Wiki for reference material, a dedicated Q&A category in Discussions for questions, and Issues specifically for bugs. That's a small organizational choice, but it makes it easier to find answers without wading through unrelated threads.
-
It's a real, active project. The README surfaces download stats, release badges, and monthly commit activity right up front. You can see the project is maintained and shipping versions rather than sitting dormant, which is the first thing you want to confirm before adopting any infrastructure tool.
-
A package you can install. Because it's published on PyPI as
hiddifypanel, there's a conventional Python installation path. If you're already comfortable in that ecosystem, it slots into your existing workflow rather than forcing you to learn a bespoke deployment method.
How to Try It
The most direct route is to grab it from PyPI, since the project publishes there as hiddifypanel:
pip install hiddifypanel
For the full manager (as opposed to just the panel package), head to the releases page on GitHub, where the project publishes versioned builds:
- Go to the repository.
- Check the latest release under the releases section.
- Follow the install instructions in the release notes or the linked Wiki.
Before you dive in, it's worth skimming the Wiki for setup guidance and checking the FAQ discussions if something doesn't work as expected. If you hit an actual bug, the issue tracker is the place to report it. And if you'd rather read the docs in your own language, the Persian, Russian, and Chinese READMEs are linked right at the top of the project page.
Final Thoughts
Hiddify Manager is aimed squarely at people running proxy infrastructure who are tired of managing each protocol in isolation. If you're administering servers and want a single panel to keep things organized, this is built for exactly that job. It's not trying to be everything to everyone, and the README is refreshingly honest about what it is: a manager, with docs and support channels to back it up. The multi-language documentation and active release cadence suggest a project that's thinking about its users beyond the English-speaking world. If that describes your situation, it's worth cloning and testing on a spare box.
