Have you thought about using tools like http://www.webmin.com/ http://www.webmin.com/ or https://cockpit-project.org/ https://cockpit-project.org/ ? They are thought for managing servers, but they might also work for desktops. Also I wouldn't be surprised if tools like http://yast.opensuse.org/ http://yast.opensuse.org/ offered a web GUI.
Furthermore, for a web based terminal, thanks to https://xtermjs.org/ https://xtermjs.org/, terminal.js and friends, there are plenty of products available nowadays. Maybe this helps for starting a web search.
- antpls 7y agoI tried cockpit and liked the UI. It's modern, simple and clean. However the features were limited (disk space, CPU graphs, but no management for wifi). I aslo tried ajenti.org but same issue, I couldn't even manage wifi with it. I will maybe make something myself. Maybe something that can take any linux tools in input and make a primitive web interface for it as output automatically.
- ktpsns 7y agoThese tools don't offer to manage wifi because they are intended for managing servers. However, most of them follow some module paradigm, so if you are open to start coding, you could implement a wifi module. Which cannot be that hard, given that there are also modular (UI independent) codes for network managing, such as https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/NetworkManager Of course, similar as to when configuring a router, don't lock out yourself from the wifi-connected machine ;-)
