converting excludarr to a web service #10

This will need a big rewrite so I will prioritize other aspects of the tool before working on this.

A web service would make managing movies/series a lot easier for a lot of people, it would also make managing the config file more error-proof given that it would be managed by the webserver.

I also want to keep it runnable just by using a config file like it is now to maintain as much backwards compatibility as we can without limiting the progress of the project.

I'm glad to see that a new maintainer has taken up the mantle, I dropped off the previous repo after the JustWatch issues.

I'm interested to help with a webUI if we think it'd be useful. Given the codebase is in Python, would the intent be to use a Python backend like Django/Flask, or move to node?

If it's not urgent, there might be an opportunity to hold out a few months and start with Svelte5 and SkeletonV3, would make for a nice codebase. Not often you get to start on something new, so planning for the ability to transition into native apps through the PWA pathway would be good.
