How it looks in practice
A dashboard tile with a full game of Tetris in it: the board, the next piece, time, level and lines, and the stack height painted against Zabbix’s own severity colours. It talks to no server and stores nothing – the tile is drawn once and the game runs in the browser.
One setting, the speed the game opens at. It is a gift to the Zabbix community, so there is no paid edition; the install steps are in the product wiki.

Delivery and updates
Delivery and updates – initMAX Portal
The FREE edition needs no purchase. Delivery and every update go through the initMAX Portal: the product page gives you the ready-made installation command for your OS, the signed DEB, RPM and APK (Alpine) packages and a ZIP archive – or install straight from repo.initmax.com, the public package storage behind the Portal.
For a Zabbix frontend in Docker, a signed Alpine APK package is available; the Docker tab in the initMAX Portal guides you through installation into your own frontend image. Depending on the base image, DEB or RPM packages or a manual ZIP installation into a persistent volume are also available.

FAQ
A running Zabbix installation – the supported Zabbix versions and minimum PHP version are listed in the requirements on each product page. For a native frontend, use a signed DEB or RPM package from the initMAX repository; installation requires administrator access to the server. For a frontend in Docker, a signed Alpine APK package is available, or DEB/RPM depending on the base image. The initMAX Portal guides you through building your own image. ZIP archives are available for manual or offline installation. No special hardware is required.
