* feat(settings): allow customizing Reality scan candidate list Persist a realityScanCandidates panel setting (defaulting to the previous hardcoded list), expose it in General Settings with i18n, and have the Find Targets scanner use it when the search box is empty. Fixes #5847 * style(frontend): oxfmt realityScanCandidates in setting.ts * Fix locale JSON syntax This change removes the malformed duplicate key and missing comma in the Android per-app proxy translations across the bundled locale files. The JSON now parses correctly while preserving the translated labels for each language. * docs(i18n): update Happ translations Localize the remaining Happ subscription settings strings across the translation files and refine the English copy. This aligns the labels and descriptions with the current Happ behavior for notifications, TUN options, HWID enforcement, routing presets, and per-app proxy settings. * refactor(reality): drop test-only scaffolding from the candidate setting TestDefaultRealityScanCandidatesCSV compared the CSV against its own initializer and a defaultValueMap lookup, and TestRealityScanCandidateTokensFallsBackWithoutDB drove a no-database state no production caller reaches (the only caller is the scanRealityTargets handler, served after InitDB). The s != nil && GetDB() != nil guard existed only for that second test. None of them could fail except in lockstep with the code they restate. * docs(api): describe the setting-driven scanRealityTargets fallback An empty targets value now probes the realityScanCandidates setting, but the endpoint summary, parameter description and handler comment still promised the built-in seed list, so API consumers were told the wrong target set. Regenerated openapi.json and synced the docs copy, which also lacked the new AllSetting field in the settings reference. --------- Co-authored-by: mrchatam <287639636+mrchatam@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Sanaei <ho3ein.sanaei@gmail.com>

3X-UI is an advanced, open-source web control panel for managing Xray-core servers. It provides a clean, multi-language interface for deploying, configuring, and monitoring a wide range of proxy and VPN protocols — from a single VPS to multi-node deployments.
Built as an enhanced fork of the original X-UI project, 3X-UI adds broader protocol support, improved stability, per-client traffic accounting, and many quality-of-life features.
Important
This project is intended for personal use only. Please do not use it for illegal purposes or in a production environment.
Features
- Multi-protocol inbounds — VLESS, VMess, Trojan, Shadowsocks, WireGuard, AmneziaWG, Hysteria2, MTProto, HTTP, SOCKS (Mixed), Dokodemo-door / Tunnel, and TUN.
- Modern transports & security — TCP (Raw), mKCP, WebSocket, gRPC, HTTPUpgrade, and XHTTP, secured with TLS, XTLS, and REALITY.
- AmneziaWG built in — DPI-resistant WireGuard runs inside the panel on a userspace network stack, with no kernel module, DKMS, or extra packages to install.
- MTProto proxies — per-client FakeTLS secrets, ad-tags, and quotas, applied live without dropping existing connections.
- Fallbacks — serve multiple protocols on a single port (e.g. VLESS and Trojan on 443) using Xray's fallback support.
- Per-client management — traffic quotas, expiry dates, IP limits with trusted-address exemptions, HWID device limits, scheduled renewal cycles, live online status, and one-click share links, QR codes, and subscriptions.
- Traffic statistics — per inbound, per client, and per outbound, with reset controls.
- Multi-node support — manage and scale across multiple servers from a single panel, including cloning inbounds onto other nodes.
- Outbound & routing — WARP, NordVPN, PIA, custom routing rules, load balancers with balancer-to-balancer fallback, and outbound proxy chaining. Bundled geosite and geoip categories are browsable straight from the rule editor.
- Built-in subscription server — raw, JSON, and Clash output, auto-selected from the client's User-Agent, plus custom page templates.
- Telegram bot for remote monitoring and management.
- RESTful API with scoped, optionally expiring tokens and an in-panel API reference.
- Installable panel (PWA) — pin 3X-UI to a desktop or phone home screen.
- Flexible storage — SQLite (default) or PostgreSQL.
- 13 UI languages with dark and light themes.
- Fail2ban integration for enforcing per-client IP limits.
Screenshots
Quick Start
bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhsanaei/3x-ui/master/install.sh)
To install a specific version, append its tag (e.g. v3.7.0):
bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhsanaei/3x-ui/master/install.sh) v3.7.0
To install the rolling dev build (latest per-commit pre-release from main, not a stable release), pass dev-latest:
bash <(curl -Ls https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhsanaei/3x-ui/master/install.sh) dev-latest
During installation a random username, password, and access path are generated. After installation, run x-ui to open the management menu, where you can start/stop the service, view or reset your login credentials, manage SSL certificates, and more.
Every release asset is published with a .sha256 sum next to it. Both install.sh and the updater verify the archive against that sum and abort on a mismatch.
For full documentation — installation, configuration, operations, and the complete API reference — visit docs.sanaei.dev.
Unattended install
The installer also runs non-interactively for cloud-init.
Set XUI_NONINTERACTIVE=1 (or pipe with no TTY) and it installs end-to-end with
zero prompts, generating random credentials and writing them to
/etc/x-ui/install-result.env. See deploy/ for:
- Cloud-init user-data — unattended install on any cloud (Hetzner/AWS/DO/Vultr/GCP/Azure/Oracle)
- Hetzner Cloud notes — cloud-init deployment on Hetzner
Supported Platforms
Operating systems: Ubuntu, Debian, Armbian, Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, AlmaLinux, Rocky Linux, Oracle Linux, Amazon Linux, Virtuozzo, Arch, Manjaro, Parch, openSUSE (Tumbleweed / Leap), Alpine, and Windows.
Architectures: amd64 · 386 · arm64 (aarch64) · armv7 · armv6 · armv5 · s390x.
Database Options
3X-UI supports two backends, chosen during the install:
- SQLite (default) — a single file at
/etc/x-ui/x-ui.db. Zero setup, ideal for small and medium deployments. - PostgreSQL — recommended for high client counts or multi-node setups. The installer can install PostgreSQL locally for you, or accept a DSN to an existing server.
At runtime the backend is selected via environment variables (the installer writes these to /etc/default/x-ui for you):
XUI_DB_TYPE=postgres
XUI_DB_DSN=postgres://xui:password@127.0.0.1:5432/xui?sslmode=disable
Migrating an existing SQLite install to PostgreSQL
x-ui migrate-db --dsn "postgres://xui:password@127.0.0.1:5432/xui?sslmode=disable"
# then set XUI_DB_TYPE and XUI_DB_DSN in /etc/default/x-ui and restart:
systemctl restart x-ui
The source SQLite file is left untouched; remove it manually once you have verified the new backend.
Docker
The default docker compose up -d keeps using SQLite. To run with the bundled PostgreSQL service, uncomment the two XUI_DB_* env lines in docker-compose.yml and start with the profile:
docker compose --profile postgres up -d
The image bundles Fail2ban (enabled by default) to enforce per-client IP limits. Fail2ban bans offenders with iptables, which requires the NET_ADMIN capability. docker-compose.yml already grants it via cap_add; if you start the container with docker run instead, add the capabilities yourself, otherwise bans are logged but never applied:
docker run -d --cap-add=NET_ADMIN --cap-add=NET_RAW ... ghcr.io/mhsanaei/3x-ui
