+ transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
33
+ not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
34
+ and conversions to other media types.
35
+
36
+ "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
37
+ Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
38
+ copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
39
+ (an example is provided in the Appendix below).
40
+
41
+ "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
42
+ form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
43
+ editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
44
+ represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
45
+ of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
46
+ separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
47
+ the Work and Derivative Works thereof.
48
+
49
+ "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including

56
+ to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
57
+ communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,

+ subsequently incorporated within the Work.
66
+
67
+ **2. Grant of Copyright License.** Subject to the terms and conditions of
68
+ this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual,
69
+ worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable
70
+ copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of,
71
+ publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the
72
+ Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.
73
+
74
+ **3. Grant of Patent License.** Subject to the terms and conditions of

+ (except as stated in this section) patent license to make, have made,
78
+ use, offer to sell, sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work,

80
+ by such Contributor that are necessarily infringed by their
81
+ Contribution(s) alone or by combination of their Contribution(s)
82
+ with the Work to which such Contribution(s) was submitted. If You
83
+ institute patent litigation against any entity (including a
84
+ cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that the Work
85
+ or a Contribution incorporated within the Work constitutes direct
86
+ or contributory patent infringement, then any patent licenses
87
+ granted to You under this License for that Work shall terminate
88
+ as of the date such litigation is filed.
89
+
90
+ **4. Redistribution.** You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
91
+ Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
92
+ modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
93
+ meet the following conditions:
94

+ Derivative Works a copy of this License; and
97
+
98
+ (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
99
+ stating that You changed the files; and

+
101
+ (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
102
+ that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
103
+ attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
104
+ excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
105
+ the Derivative Works; and
106
+
107
+ (d) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
108
+ distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
109
+ include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
110
+ within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not

+ pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
112
+ of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed

+ as modifying the License.
123
+
124
+ You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
125
+ may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
126
+ for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or

+ for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
128
+ reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
129
+ the conditions stated in this License.
130
+
131
+ **5. Submission of Contributions.** Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
132
+ any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
133
+ by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
134
+ this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
135
+ Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
136
+ the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
137
+ with Licensor regarding such Contributions.
138
+
139
+ **6. Trademarks.** This License does not grant permission to use the trade
140
+ names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
141
+ except as required for reasonable and customary use in describing the
142
+ origin of the Work and reproducing the content of the NOTICE file.
143
+
144
+ **7. Disclaimer of Warranty.** Unless required by applicable law or
145
+ agreed to in writing, Licensor provides the Work (and each
146
+ Contributor provides its Contributions) on an "AS IS" BASIS,
147
+ WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, either express or
148
+ implied, including, without limitation, any warranties or conditions
149
+ of TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY, or FITNESS FOR A
150
+ PARTICULAR PURPOSE. You are solely responsible for determining the
151
+ appropriateness of using or redistributing the Work and assume any
152
+ risks associated with Your exercise of permissions under this License.
153
+
154
+ **8. Limitation of Liability.** In no event and under no legal theory,
155
+ whether in tort (including negligence), contract, or otherwise,
156
+ unless required by applicable law (such as deliberate and grossly
157
+ negligent acts) or agreed to in writing, shall any Contributor be
158
+ liable to You for damages, including any direct, indirect, special,
159
+ incidental, or consequential damages of any character arising as a
160
+ result of this License or out of the use or inability to use the
161
+ Work (including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill,
162
+ work stoppage, computer failure or malfunction, or any and all
163
+ other commercial damages or losses), even if such Contributor
164
+ has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
165
+
166
+ **9. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability.** While redistributing
167
+ the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
168
+ and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
169
+ or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
170
+ License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
171
+ on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
172
+ of any other Contributor, and only if You agree to indemnify,
173
+ defend, and hold each Contributor harmless for any liability
174
+ incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Contributor by reason
175
+ of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.

31
+ **Throughput, latency, jitter and packet loss between endpoints, measured from a web
32
+ browser.** Open the page and press Start. texas2step measures the path between you
33
+ and the server with multi-stream HTTP transfers, latency probes idle and under load,
34
+ and real UDP packet loss over WebRTC, then shows every figure as discrete metrics and
35
+ graphs. The same measurements are available as a REST API, a Python CLI, and
36
+ server-to-server functions.

39
+
40
+ Inspired by [speed.cloudflare.com](https://speed.cloudflare.com)
41
+ ([cloudflare/speedtest](https://github.com/cloudflare/speedtest)), but self-hosted: a
42
+ Python server, a dependency-free TypeScript client, and no third-party services, so it
43
+ works on air-gapped and internal networks.
44
+
45
+ ## What it measures
46
+
47
+ | Metric | How | Transport |
48
+ |---|---|---|
49
+ | **Latency** | 20 keep-alive pings, timed with Resource Timing, server time removed | HTTP |
50
+ | **Jitter** | Mean absolute difference between consecutive RTTs | HTTP |
51
+ | **Download / upload** | N parallel streams for T seconds, 100 ms timeline, ramp-up excluded | HTTP |
52
+ | **Latency under load** | Probes every 250 ms on a separate connection during each transfer, graded A+ to F | WebSocket |
53
+ | **Packet loss** | Numbered probes on an unreliable data channel, echoed; up- and downstream loss separated | UDP (WebRTC) |
54
+ | **Stream fairness** | Per-stream rates and Jain's index | HTTP |
55
+ | **Readiness** | Grades for streaming, video calls, reaction time/VDI/SSH and bulk transfers | derived |
56
+
57
+ Details and definitions: [docs/methodology.md](https://github.com/robert-patrick-texas/texas2step/blob/main/docs/methodology.md).
58
+
59
+ ![Results](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/robert-patrick-texas/texas2step/main/docs/images/results-light.jpg)
60
+
61
+ The UI has five views: **Test** (gauge, live link animation, charts, exportable and
62
+ shareable results), **Monitor** (continuous UDP probing with a scrolling RTT and loss
63
+ trace, to one server or to two at once for a side-by-side comparison), **Diag** (HTTPS,
64
+ WebSocket and UDP over IPv4 and IPv6, tried once a second, with your addresses, NAT,
65
+ TLS and an event log), **History** (saved runs and trend), and **API** (copy-ready
66
+ examples). A site can hide any of them (`page_test`, `page_monitor`, `page_diag`,
67
+ `page_history`, `page_api`). Every
68
+ chart has a hover readout and a table equivalent.
69
+
70
+ Visitors pick a theme from the header: Light, Dark, America, Energy, Federal, Military or
71
+ Texas, or one that follows the OS. A page-size drop-down beside it (70% to 125%) fits more on smaller screens. Operators can rename the site, add their logo, organization and
72
+ support links, show a notice on every page and set the default theme; see
73
+ [Branding and themes](https://github.com/robert-patrick-texas/texas2step/blob/main/docs/configuration.md#branding-and-themes).
74
+
75
+ ## Install
76
+
77
+ On an Ubuntu 26.04 LTS server that already runs nginx, install the Debian package from
78
+ the [releases page](https://github.com/robert-patrick-texas/texas2step/releases) and add
79
+ one line to your site's `server { }` block:
80
+
81
+ ```bash
82
+ sudo apt install ./texas2step-*-amd64.deb # the package from the releases page
83
+ # in /etc/nginx/sites-available/<your site>: include snippets/texas2step.conf;
84
+ sudo nginx -t && sudo systemctl reload nginx # → https://www.example.net/texas2step/
85
+ ```
86
+
87
+ Or let `texas2step-setup`, which ships next to the `.deb`, check the server first. It
88
+ reports what it will change and what you must fix, then writes an install script for
89
+ that server. The script installs, reinstalls or upgrades texas2step, merges your
90
+ settings into the new template, publishes it through nginx and opens the UDP range:
91
+
92
+ ```bash
93
+ sudo ./texas2step-setup --id houston --name "houston.example.net" --location "Houston, TX"
94
+ sudo ./texas2step-install.sh # after reading it
95
+ ```
96
+
97
+ Once installed, `sudo texas2step update` upgrades it to the newest release, and a timer
98
+ can do that unattended. On a server without internet access,
99
+ `sudo texas2step update --from <directory>` installs a release whose two files you put
100
+ there. The [install guide](https://github.com/robert-patrick-texas/texas2step/blob/main/docs/install.md) covers the rest: the setup

+ ## API
144
+
145
+ Every primitive is a plain HTTP endpoint (`/api/v1/ping`, `/down`, `/up`, `/ws`,
146
+ `/rtc/offer`), and a server can measure toward another server on request:
147
+
148
+ ```bash
149
+ curl -o /dev/null 'https://www.example.net/texas2step/api/v1/down?bytes=1000000000'
150
+ curl -s -X POST https://dallas.example.net/texas2step/api/v1/measure/full \
151
+ -H 'content-type: application/json' -d '{"target": "https://houston.example.net/texas2step"}'
152
+ ```

+

+ ## Several locations
157
+
158
+ List other texas2step servers in the config and they appear in the header's server
159
+ picker. The browser tests the chosen server directly (cross-origin), and each server can
160
+ measure the others through the API. See [docs/configuration.md](https://github.com/robert-patrick-texas/texas2step/blob/main/docs/configuration.md).

+ **Throughput, latency, jitter and packet loss between endpoints, measured from a web
4
+ browser.** Open the page and press Start. texas2step measures the path between you
5
+ and the server with multi-stream HTTP transfers, latency probes idle and under load,
6
+ and real UDP packet loss over WebRTC, then shows every figure as discrete metrics and
7
+ graphs. The same measurements are available as a REST API, a Python CLI, and
8
+ server-to-server functions.

+
10
+ ![Download in progress](docs/images/hero-dark.jpg)
11
+
12
+ Inspired by [speed.cloudflare.com](https://speed.cloudflare.com)
13
+ ([cloudflare/speedtest](https://github.com/cloudflare/speedtest)), but self-hosted: a
14
+ Python server, a dependency-free TypeScript client, and no third-party services, so it
15
+ works on air-gapped and internal networks.
16
+
17
+ ## What it measures
18
+
19
+ | Metric | How | Transport |
20
+ |---|---|---|
21
+ | **Latency** | 20 keep-alive pings, timed with Resource Timing, server time removed | HTTP |
22
+ | **Jitter** | Mean absolute difference between consecutive RTTs | HTTP |
23
+ | **Download / upload** | N parallel streams for T seconds, 100 ms timeline, ramp-up excluded | HTTP |
24
+ | **Latency under load** | Probes every 250 ms on a separate connection during each transfer, graded A+ to F | WebSocket |
25
+ | **Packet loss** | Numbered probes on an unreliable data channel, echoed; up- and downstream loss separated | UDP (WebRTC) |
26
+ | **Stream fairness** | Per-stream rates and Jain's index | HTTP |
27
+ | **Readiness** | Grades for streaming, video calls, reaction time/VDI/SSH and bulk transfers | derived |
28
+
29
+ Details and definitions: [docs/methodology.md](docs/methodology.md).
30
+
31
+ ![Results](docs/images/results-light.jpg)
32
+
33
+ The UI has five views: **Test** (gauge, live link animation, charts, exportable and
34
+ shareable results), **Monitor** (continuous UDP probing with a scrolling RTT and loss
35
+ trace, to one server or to two at once for a side-by-side comparison), **Diag** (HTTPS,
36
+ WebSocket and UDP over IPv4 and IPv6, tried once a second, with your addresses, NAT,
37
+ TLS and an event log), **History** (saved runs and trend), and **API** (copy-ready
38
+ examples). A site can hide any of them (`page_test`, `page_monitor`, `page_diag`,
39
+ `page_history`, `page_api`). Every
40
+ chart has a hover readout and a table equivalent.
41
+
42
+ Visitors pick a theme from the header: Light, Dark, America, Energy, Federal, Military or
43
+ Texas, or one that follows the OS. A page-size drop-down beside it (70% to 125%) fits more on smaller screens. Operators can rename the site, add their logo, organization and
44
+ support links, show a notice on every page and set the default theme; see
45
+ [Branding and themes](docs/configuration.md#branding-and-themes).
46
+
47
+ ## Install
48
+
49
+ On an Ubuntu 26.04 LTS server that already runs nginx, install the Debian package from
50
+ the [releases page](https://github.com/robert-patrick-texas/texas2step/releases) and add
51
+ one line to your site's `server { }` block:
52
+
53
+ ```bash
54
+ sudo apt install ./texas2step-*-amd64.deb # the package from the releases page
55
+ # in /etc/nginx/sites-available/<your site>: include snippets/texas2step.conf;
56
+ sudo nginx -t && sudo systemctl reload nginx # → https://www.example.net/texas2step/
57
+ ```
58
+
59
+ Or let `texas2step-setup`, which ships next to the `.deb`, check the server first. It
60
+ reports what it will change and what you must fix, then writes an install script for
61
+ that server. The script installs, reinstalls or upgrades texas2step, merges your
62
+ settings into the new template, publishes it through nginx and opens the UDP range:
63
+
64
+ ```bash
65
+ sudo ./texas2step-setup --id houston --name "houston.example.net" --location "Houston, TX"
66
+ sudo ./texas2step-install.sh # after reading it
67
+ ```
68
+
69
+ Once installed, `sudo texas2step update` upgrades it to the newest release, and a timer
70
+ can do that unattended. On a server without internet access,
71
+ `sudo texas2step update --from <directory>` installs a release whose two files you put
72
+ there. The [install guide](docs/install.md) covers the rest: the setup
73
+ tool's options, the optional `/speedtest` address, configuration, the firewall rule for
74
+ the UDP test, updates, clearing saved results, cloning a server and removal.
75
+
76
+ To run it from source instead:
77
+
78
+ ```bash
79
+ uv sync && uv run texas2step serve # http://localhost:8080
80
+ ```
