Every Edition of NeXT Panel starting with version 26 will be encoded with ionCube to protect key features and their implementation; therefore, the ionCube loader must be configured in your PHP environment before you can install NeXT Panel.
-
The only official repo of the NeXT panel is The-NeXT-Project/NeXT-Panel on GitHub.
NeXT Panel (Pro Edition) is a multipurpose proxy service management system designed for Shadowsocks(2022) / Vmess / Trojan / TUIC protocol, it has redesigned system architecture and replaced many of its PHP-based backends with high-performance Golang-based ones, and significantly improved site response time under heavy load.
The Pro version will use a yearly subscription model, we plan to provide a dedicated license purchase site and existing patron members can access it as well. We will publish further pricing info on our Discord Server and Twitter Account, please stay tuned.
