This is wild... PHP server with electron client.. I'm genuinely impressed. It's been many years since I worked with PHP. Back in the days before proper namespaces etc. This just blows my mind. What an incredible effort, I will definitely be helping with this project in my free time. We need more crazy projects like this!

I don't know enough about PHP to understand this comment. Can you elaborate?

Thanks God, no. PHP has the clumsiness of Java but JavaScript is cool.
