Any interest/plan to migrate to a contemporary framework? #266

AngularJS is solid. It has been my go-to framework till around 5-6 years ago. Working on this project brings back a lot of fond memory. But its official support has ended 6 months ago. I believe it is time to move on.

I am wondering if you have any plan or interest to migrate this great swiss-army-knife remote management application for torrenting to any contemporary framework (e.g. Angular 2+, React, Vue, Svelte, etc.). I am more than willing to help.

Hi @UnKnoWn-Consortium

Thank you for your contributions. I apologise for getting through your PRs so late.

I agree with your conclusion - moving to a newer framework would be appreciated. However, as you can probably see from my response time on your PRs, I don't have as much time to work on this project as I would like to. I have spent a lot of time moving the codebase to typescript and webpack. Moving to a newer framework (I prefer React) would require a lot of effort, given the time I have available.

You are welcome to help if you have a plan on how to migrate. Your work would be most appreciated.
