Not anymore it isn't. "Claude, make this a web app".
- allthetime 5mo agoJust what I need! A bloated react app to manage my systemd units
- tempaccount5050 5mo agoSo just tell it html only if you want.
- sophiabits 5mo agoA browser is OOM more expensive to run than a terminal app, regardless of what you're running inside said browser
- eVeechu7 5mo agoIs that because they are much more likely to pay the ultimate price at the hands of the OOM killer?
- vineyardmike 5mo agoI've literally never met anyone in real life who used a computer that didn't already have a browser running 24/7
- allthetime 5mo agoHow does the browser interact with the os? A tui exe has direct access. With “only html” now we need a server of some kind. How is multiple layers and running processes superior to a thin terminal based wrapper around the relevant io? That said, obviously it depends on the use case. I’m not going to make a tui to interact with locations on a map - a web app makes a lot of sense in that case. But something like lazydocker makes sense more sense as a light terminal based program
- logicprog 5mo agoJust use something like Tk or wxWidgets.
