About YakPanel

YakPanel is a simple but powerful hosting control panel, it can manage the web server through web-based GUI(Graphical User Interface).

Modern stack (FastAPI + React): see YakPanel-server/ in this repository for the API and SPA that map to yakpanel.com product work.

Filesystem renames on existing servers: this tree expects panel code under YakPanel/, launcher scripts Yak-Panel and Yak-Task, and the task package in YakTask/. If you upgrade from an older layout (BTPanel, BT-Panel, BT-Task, BTTask), rename those paths on disk and adjust any custom scripts or systemd units that still reference the old names. ipsets were renamed from yakpanel.ipv4.* to yakpanel.ipv4.*—recreate or migrate rules as needed. New encrypted DB field markers use the YP-0x: prefix (existing BT-0x: values still decrypt). Panel PKCS#12 downloads use ssl/yakpanel_root.pfx (legacy ssl/baota_root.pfx is still recognized until renewed). OpenLiteSpeed stubs use YP_SITENAME / YP_RUN_PATH instead of BT_SITENAME / BT_RUN_PATH, and YP_OLS_NAME / YP_EXTP_NAME / YP_PHP_V / YP_SSL_DOMAIN instead of BTSITENAME / BT_EXTP_NAME / BTPHPV / BTDOMAIN, and hotlink rules use YP_FILE_EXT instead of BTPFILE, for new generated snippets. One-click deployment config patching accepts both YP_DB_USERNAME|YP_DB_PASSWORD|YP_DB_NAME and the legacy BT_DB_* names.

• one-click function: such as one-click install LNMP/LAMP developing environment and software.
• save the time: Our main goal is helping users to save the time of deploying, thus users just focus on their own project that is fine.
