These days, it makes sense for everything I write to have a web interface.
Most of our compiled and interpretive languages run everywhere as long as
you don't start working with the native GUI, and there's no need to port a
web-based GUI. There aren't any facilities that we would expect on a native
GUI and are missing from the web these days.
Thanks
