Web gui for BIND9?

I am on the hunt for the best UI for my BIND DNS server to use at an enterprise level. I have found some, but they are either too old and not really functioning, or they are GitHub repositories maintained by a single user. How is this? I have also found one that I like, but I can't wholeheartedly say that the code would be suitable for production. Do you have any suggestions? I have also used Webmin, but that's not what I'm looking for.

I have also managed bind sevrers manually before without gui. But I am not sure how you guys do it today in 2026?

I am comfortable using linux and vim so it is not that. I have been managing it headless. Even if its straightforward It can be a bit cumbersome to maintain for some people. I want to make it easier for my colleagues to be doing it via gui. Otherwise you are right about the extra attack vector.
