Mackup GUI #604

Open lra opened 9 years ago

lra commented 9 years ago

I don't see why we can't have a GUI. It would need to be native and cross platform: http://www.wxpython.org/ seems to be the right candidate, but I'm open to proposition.

The GUI would display the list of application, and if they are synced or not, and allow to sync each app individually.

Will be easier to build once the status command and the ability to sync individual app is done.

PR welcome.

Update: use toga + briefcase?

Would a Web UI make sense in the first instance to build it rapidly?

lra commented 9 years ago

Depends on what you call a web UI, I don't think we want a HTTP server embedded =) But the real blocker here is https://github.com/lra/mackup/issues/603

dahacouk commented 9 years ago

Ah, yes, I see. Most of the logic is in #603 anyway. I wish I could code and help out more.

Interesting idea, I'd love to see how this goes. I don't mind helping with the design work if someone wants to do the back-end side.
