I built a terminal UI dashboard for monitoring BullMQ.

The problem: Every time I needed to debug queues, I had to set up bull-board – install multiple packages, integrate with Express/Fastify, wrap each queue with adapters, configure routes. Fine for production dashboards, but overkill when you just want to quickly inspect jobs.

bullmq-dash is a TUI that connects directly to Redis. It auto-discovers all BullMQ queues (no manual registration), shows job counts by status, lets you inspect job data/stacktraces, view schedulers/repeatable jobs, and tracks enqueue/dequeue rates. Keyboard-driven (vim-style navigation).

Use cases: local debugging, SSH sessions, quick production inspections – anywhere you want to see your queues without spinning up a web dashboard.
