Why a web-app instead of a local application? Why does this need to be connected to the internet, when it doesnt interact with anything?
Is it because you want to be able to sync to other devices, such as a phone app in the future?
- dabernathy89 9y agothis is a strange question. most users of a tool like this would expect it to be available from different computers and devices, like virtually any other website they need to create an account for. and you'd certainly want this data backed up.
- robinhood 9y agoBecause I just know web stuff. I did some .net like 15 years ago, but now I just know PHP and HTML, basically. Moreover, I'd love to create an app too, which would require an API, which requires to be available online.
- tajen 9y agoUse electron. It's what powers Slack for desktop: Youbuild an HTML app and it shows in a desktop window.
- lucb1e 9y agoWell I'm glad this isn't .NET, or almost as bad, Electron. I think web is a fine choice, provided it's open source and self-hostable for those who care.
- UweSchmidt 9y agoWhat's wrong with .NET? Even if you don't like programming with it you'd get a native application.
