Simple GUI for device control like Dante Controller

[rgon]

• Decide wether to develop a TUI (like using textual), a full HTML Gui (quite easy with <details>, checkboxes, would use standard API in Develop up-to-date API, remove code duplication #2 ),
• Step 1: get server running
• Step 2: create gui and webview (tauri is probably the simplest way to embed the view)
• Step 3: create distributable (ideally appimage/other method that doesn't require installation) bundle that runs both the server and gui, or just the server (given CLI arguments)
• Step 4: release with GHA

Dante controller basic feature parity

For this GUI to be useful, it has to at least implement the following features from older Dante controller versions (for example 4.2):

• Overall status:

  • connected devices & subscriptions
  • multicast bandwidth (pretty sure 'multicast bandwidth' is an estimation??)

• basic control view:

  • subscription updating
  • mute
  • Reboot device
  • clear config

• AES67/multicast config

  • Aes67 enabled / disabled
  • rtp multicast addr prefix: 239.69.xxx.xxx

• device packet latency histogram (essential for debugging!)

• device config view

  • latency
  • manual manual ip/netmask/dns/gateway
  • dante redundancy

• Device Information view:

manufacturer_information:
      manufacturer
      model_name
      product_version
      dante_information:
      dante_model: DIOUSB
      dante_firmware_version
      hardware_version
      rom/Boot_vorsion
  
clock synchronization:
      mute_status: muted|unmuted
      sync_status: locked
      external_world_clock: yes|no
      preferred: no
      frequency_offset: 15ppm
  
network interfaces:
      Primary:
      ip_addr,
      mac,
      tx_utilization: kbps, error
      rx_utilization: kbps, error
  
Latency:
      count: 1-10-100...
      duration: 0.03
      peak/average:
      setting: 1msec

It would be smart to hide this (or the built JS UI at least) behind a python flag, like [gui]

Hey, is there really no one who wants to create a simple GUI for this software? Since we've made great progress with AES67, I think a GUI would be the next important step to significantly improve accessibility for more testers and non-technical users. That's why I'd like to encourage anyone who has the necessary knowledge, passion, and time to make this happen (Sadly, I don't have the knowlege to do this).
We don't need fancy graphical elements. In my opinion, a TUI would suffice. First and foremost, it should just work.
It would be really cool if we could implement some kind of interactive matrix for routing like in the original, as I find that much more intuitive than selecting source and destination channels from lists, but it's not an absolute must. The Owner of this repo did a good check list that contains what we need. I would love to see this thing happen.
