Maybe once in the future an exe app can be downloaded and used instead of running it from shell/NGUI.
I can help building the GUI app as I have a knowledge of VB.NET Visual Studio Programming and can make an open tool for this purpose. Just you can tell me which script goes where, etc. and I can try making a basic GUI. I use a Windows XP computer running Visual Studio 2022.
Here is an image of an example of the app:

A GUI is a great idea. It does feel like it should live in a separate repo IMO.

Someone else started a similar PR #279

Hey, I think a Web Interface is better.

@SumitKumarDev10 Yeah, now I feel like there should be both. One for online and the other app can be if you want to use it in a little more advanced. I too love the idea though.

You should start a PR

@SaiPanneerselvam Ok, I will fork the project and start working on the web interface which will be accessible from the Internet.

Someone else who is more experienced in making GUI apps can use the Tkinter library to make the app.

hmm... you are probably right

but windows forms and VB.NET is a little more tailored.

like tkinter is a design programme that you have to write line-by-line, whereas VB.NET Windows Forms can be customized easily, which makes it a little more simpler in both the frontend and backend.

Hmm... Looks like we need a VB.net coder to help us out.

I can also help with the GUI part. I'm good at the designing and frontend. It's just the backend and the programs I don't have expertise in.

I am not experienced in Tkinter but am good in web development

OK i have found the project under your username and I have a good tool to make the website with. It is very nice in the development part. It is Glitch, an Open Website Creator that is free and gives you the opportunity to make the website under a subdomain, instead of the subdomain being the username, and the repo is the folder. (GitHub vs glitch) you can make an website by importing from github.

I can create an shared project on it.

I think Vercel is good for deploying the web application. To collaborate, we can use Github Codespaces.

I have added @SaiPanneerselvam to my collaborator's list of repository. If anyone else wants to get added, then please contact me.

Please refer to issue no. #456 for collaborating to the web interface of the repository.

Why not build it with an electron app? That way it would be easily cross platform compatible. It would also prevent the need for a gui/app to be coded in multiple languages.

@SumitKumarDev10

@mach7 I don't know electronjs so I think an a developer who knows it can contribute.
