so uh
why exactly are you reinventing the wheel and why in a GUI
Because I want to have complete control over the server.
I'm probably going to have the same server work on other protocols as well, to communicate with Minecraft or Blockland, and possibly even host my own game I'm working on.
It also gives me the opportunity to write pages in C++ instead of php or lua, which is my preferred language.
As for the GUI, why not?
it's nice to be able to execute commands and stuff without having to load a page and see things without having to open a log file
Anyway, kinda surprised no one has registered yet, I mean a few years ago when I hosted a website I got people signing up as soon as I posted about it. By the time I lost the files for it I had like 60 individual users.
