Dead simple OPC UA browser

OPGuia

Dead simple OPC UA browser built with Python.

---

Quick Start

The fastest way to run OPGuia is with uv:

uvx opguia

Don't have uv? Install it with curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh or see the uv installation docs.

Or install with pip:

pip install opguia
opguia

A native desktop window opens automatically. Enter an OPC UA endpoint or let it auto-discover servers on your network.

• Compact 26px rows — scan hundreds of variables at a glance

Monitor

• Watch panel for live variable tracking
