I’m looking for a chef dashboard. Something that will show all nodes, their  
client run status and maybe let me do a converge, with output, as well.

Anything like that exist? I’ve tried [https://github.com/sidebolt/chefdash](https://github.com/sidebolt/chefdash)  
but it seems to have some issues.

Ditto, I tried chef dash also and encountered problems.

Try taking a look at Chef Analytics: [https://docs.chef.io/analytics.html](https://docs.chef.io/analytics.html)

It's a premium feature, but you can use it up to 25 nodes if you are  
just using open source chef server 12, else it may well be what you  
are after, and so worth the cost.

I heard some reports that chef might open source the chef11 web ui source  
code (or possibly already has). Can anyone else confirm this?

As the README indicates, it is no longer actively maintained so you are on your own.
